3This class is used for a variety of menu-related events. Note that
4these do not include menu command events, which are
5handled using \helpref{wxCommandEvent}{wxcommandevent} objects.
6
7The default handler for wxEVT\_MENU\_HIGHLIGHT displays help
8text in the first field of the status bar.

25To process a menu event, use these event handler macros to direct input to member
26functions that take a wxMenuEvent argument. They can only be processed by
27a menubar's frame.
