    @class wxCaret

    A caret is a blinking cursor showing the position where the typed text will
    appear. Text controls usually have their own caret but wxCaret provides a
    way to use a caret in other windows.

    Currently, the caret appears as a rectangle of the given size. In the
    future, it will be possible to specify a bitmap to be used for the caret
    shape.

    A caret is always associated with a window and the current caret can be
    retrieved using wxWindow::GetCaret(). The same caret can't be reused in two
    different windows.
