:circus_tent: Added .gitattributes & .gitignore files
Since this is a course in user interface design, The first assignment is to write a simple program to maintain a file of data.

1. The file (and therefore the screen) will contain the following
fields:
a. First name (20)
b. Last name (20)
c. Middle initial (1) (may be blank; not required)
d. Address line 1 (35)
e. Address line 2 (35)  (may be blank; not required)
f. City (25)
g. State (2)
h. Zip code (9)
i. Phone number (21)
j. Gender (1)  (Must be M or F)
2. Your program must provide three functions:
a. Add a new record to the end of the file.
b. Modify an existing record and write it back to the file.
c. Delete a record from the file.
3. Your program must not be able to add a record that contains the same
first name, last name, and middle initial as a record already in the
file.
4. Since this is not a database class, you will use a flat text file
with one record per line.  One way to do this is to read the entire file
into memory when your program starts and write it back out, with
changes, when your program exits.   “But java has database
functionality.  Can we use that?” No.
5. You may not read everything into a datagrid or something like it and
treat it as a spreadsheet.  You must have separate fields for the
various data elements.
6. You should show the name and phone number only (not every field) in a
multi-column scrollable list. Clicking on a list item should put all of
its data elements into the fields for modification.
7. All three functions must be done from the same main screen.  There
should be no menu and no multiple screens.
8. Your program must be written in Java using Swing.
9. Do not use any third-party controls that we must load in order to
compile and run your program.  Only things that are part of the java and
javax packages are allowed.  If we cannot compile and run your program
from the command line it will get a maximum of 10 points out of 100.
10. Your program must apply good object-oriented methodology.  That is,
the user interface, application logic (what little there is in this
program) and the technical services layer must be separate classes.
11. Make sure you keep your source code, since this program will
continue to evolve iteratively.
12. This is a user interface assignment, so pay particular attention to
how your program looks and how easy it is to use.

CS6301 User Interface Design Assignment 1
Since this is a course in user interface design, your first assignment
is to write a simple program to maintain a file of data.  This is a very
common thing to write in the “real world,” but it’s not as easy as it
looks.  Specifications are as follows:
1. The file (and therefore the screen) will contain the following
fields:
a. First name (20)
b. Last name (20)
c. Middle initial (1) (may be blank; not required)
d. Address line 1 (35)
e. Address line 2 (35)  (may be blank; not required)
f. City (25)
g. State (2)
h. Zip code (9)
i. Phone number (21)
j. Gender (1)  (Must be M or F)
2. Your program must provide three functions:
a. Add a new record to the end of the file.
b. Modify an existing record and write it back to the file.
c. Delete a record from the file.
