46overview = """
47The wxEditor class implements a simple text editor using wxPython. You
48can create a custom editor by subclassing wxEditor. Even though much of
78e8819c 49the editor is implemented in Python, it runs surprisingly smoothly on
1918b6f7 50normal hardware with small files.

52How to use it
53-------------
54The demo code (demo/wxEditor.py) shows how to use wxEditor as a simple text
55box. Use the SetText() and GetText() methods to set or get text from
56the component; these both use a list of strings.
57
58The samples/FrogEdit directory has an example of a simple text editor
59application that uses the wxEditor component.
60
61Subclassing
62-----------
63To add or change functionality, you can subclass this
64component. One example of this might be to change the key
65Alt key commands. In that case you would (for example) override the
66SetAltFuncs() method.
