DocStr(wxComboBox,
"A combobox is like a combination of an edit control and a
listbox. It can be displayed as static list with editable or
read-only text field; or a drop-down list with text field.

A combobox permits a single selection only. Combobox items are
numbered from zero.", "

Styles
------
    ================    ===============================================
    wx.CB_SIMPLE        Creates a combobox with a permanently
                        displayed list.  Windows only.

    wx.CB_DROPDOWN      Creates a combobox with a drop-down list.

    wx.CB_READONLY      Same as wxCB_DROPDOWN but only the strings
                        specified as the combobox choices can be
                        selected, it is impossible to select
                        (even from a program) a string which is
                        not in the choices list.

    wx.CB_SORT          Sorts the entries in the list alphabetically.
    ================    ===============================================

Events
-------
    ================    ===============================================
    EVT_COMBOBOX        Sent when an item on the list is selected.
                        Note that calling `GetValue` in this handler 
                        will return the newly selected value.
    EVT_TEXT            Sent when the combobox text changes.
    EVT_TEXT_ENTER      Sent when the RETURN/ENTER key is pressed in
                        the combobox.
    ================    ===============================================
