//
//	DESCRIPTION:	A 3ds max-style align tool, which is very convenient. The script aligns
//			two selected objects with various options.
//			It's also capable of aligning the pivot to a target object, as well as
//			to it's own object.
//			Objects with hierachies below them can have a bigger bounding box if the
//			hierarchie objects are bigger or in a different position.
//			The tool respects that and only works with the true bounding box of the
//			align objects.
//			The first selected object is the source object and the second acts as
//			the target.
//
//	VERSIONS:
//			1.3 - Jul. 29, 2005
//			- made the global variables more unique by their names
//			- made the tool discontinue if nothing is selected upon tool invocation
//
//			1.2 - Jul. 10, 2004
//			- The objects show their local axis for better feedback
//			- Corrected a flaw where the pivot didn't align to the
//			target object correctly
//
//			1.1 - Jul. 05, 2004
//			- The window is now resizable
//
//			1.0 - Oct. 26, 2003
