Silly me. The buttons in question are just ordinary button widgets on an
exclusive base. (See the EXCLUSIVE keyword to the WIDGET_BASE function.)

The original poster said

Basically, I want one button to stay pressed down, signifying
the "mode" the application is in.

If the word "mode" implies a choice between several mutually exclusive
choices, then button widgets on an exclusive base fit the bill exactly.
