[Coco] Drivewire on an original Raspberry Pi

I thought I wrote a long explanation and sent it earlier today regarding 
how DW4UI.jar works internally with the libs.  Maybe I sent the message 
to you rather than the list.

So I will make this a short reply.

Basically DW4UI.jar comes bundled with the SWT GTKjava jar library 
inside of it.  When it is run for the first time it installs the 
relevant swtgtk.so to the ~/.swt/lib/linux/XarchitectureX directory.

DW4 comes with SWTGTK libs for OSX, Win32, Win64, Linux32, Linux64 and 
LinuxArm.

However the LinuxArm library appears incomplete and doesn't specify if 
it is 32 or 64 bit.

It specifically requires version 4234 of libswt-gtk-4234.so, 
libswt-pi-gtk-4234.so, libswt-awt-gtk-4234.so, libswt-cairo-gtk-4234.so.

If it doesn't find these it automatically installs them to the above 
mentioned directory.  On my ARM64 Ubuntu system it was installing the 
IntelLinux64 version. Probably because several years ago there was only 
one ARM architecture on Linux. Now there are two and it probably doesn't 
recognize the newer and different architecture names.

I haven't tried installing it on a PI which is usually 32 bit!
