I had abandoned this project years ago when stop working on Delphi
and move to C++, Python and Java worlds. I wanted during years
to depurate the code of WZ70 VCL my own code base and transform it
to Berimbau VCL but isn´t in my plans, I don´t know if it will
be again in my plans sometime in the future and Delphi 7 is so old now.
So I'm adding WZ70 into files of the project for someone who need it
or has the time to depurate this code.
Isn´t my best work but it was so helpfull to me.

1. Delphi versions
D7*
* I'm just working with D7, I can't say if my actual work is 100%
compatible with other versions, help to add support for other Delphi
versions (or C++ Builder) are welcome.
2. Waht's the meaning of Berimbau?
The berimbau is a single-string percussion instrument, a musical bow,
from Brazil. The berimbau's origins are not entirely clear, but there is
not much doubt on its African origin, as no Indigenous Brazilian or
European people use musical bows, and very similar instruments are
played in the southern parts of Africa. The berimbau was eventually
incorporated into the practice of the Afro-Brazilian martial art
capoeira, where it commands how the capoeiristas move in the roda.
For more details see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berimbau
3. Why Beimbau?
The berimbau is simple but with a powerfull sound. The idea behind
Berimbau VCL is to get simple components with powerfull options for
developers.
