// Description:
// For the Winscw Emulator only, selects between NGA and Non-NGA version of wsgraphicdrawer.
// The default is the non-GCE based version.
// To select the NGA version do one of:
// 1. Add a line to the epoc.ini file in \epoc32\data like this:
// symbian_graphics_use_gce ON
// or
// 2. Start epoc.exe with these parameters, (the "--" IS necessary):
// -Dsymbian_graphics_use_gce=ON --
// or
// 3. epoc.exe can be told to switch to a different initialisation file than epoc.ini, with the -M parameter.
// Progress chaining to the real Wserv is logged in epocwind.out.
// 
//
