required to define a user-interface to be utilized on a G4 touch panel. This includes Pages, Popup Pages
and associated navigation/page-flip information, as well as buttons (including function code
information), and all image and sound-related files that are used in the design (including dynamic images
and video feeds).

IRN files must be exported from IREdit as IR Library (*.IRL) files in order to be used
