     NOTE: By default, the look and feel will be set to the
     Cross Platform Look and Feel (which is currently Metal).
     The user may someday be able to override the default
     via a system property. If you as the developer want to
     be sure that a particular L&F is set, you can do so
     by calling UIManager.setLookAndFeel(). For example, the
     first code snippet below forcibly sets the UI to be the
     System Look and Feel. The second code snippet forcibly
     sets the look and feel to the Cross Platform L&F.

     Snippet 1:
        try {
            UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
        } catch (Exception exc) {
            System.err.println("Error loading L&F: " + exc);
        }

     Snippet 2:
        try {
            UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getCrossPlatformLookAndFeelClassName());
        } catch (Exception exc) {
            System.err.println("Error loading L&F: " + exc);
