Simple bottom "stroke" XML drawable for Android View backgrounds
<!-- This produces a 1.5dp stroke along the bottom of a View. It works by drawing the stroke color as the background of the View, then the background color on top, offset up by 1.5dp. Unfortunately, this approach
only works if you have solid color backgrounds. For transparency, you'll have to use a 9patch. -->
