class Layoutf(wx.LayoutConstraints):
    """
The class Layoutf(wxLayoutConstraints) presents a simplification
of the wxLayoutConstraints syntax. The name Layoutf is choosen
because of the similarity with C's printf function.

Quick Example:

    lc = Layoutf('t=t#1;l=r10#2;r!100;h%h50#1', (self, self.panel))

is equivalent to

    lc = wxLayoutContraints()
    lc.top.SameAs(self, wxTop)
    lc.left.SameAs(self.panel, wxRight, 10)
    lc.right.Absolute(100)
    lc.height.PercentOf(self, wxHeight, 50)

Usage:

    You can give a constraint string to the Layoutf constructor,
or use the 'pack' method. The following are equivalent:

    lc = Layoutf('t=t#1;l=r#2;r!100;h%h50#1', (self, self.panel))

and

    lc = Layoutf()
    lc.pack('t=t#1;l=r#2;r!100;h%h50#1', (self, self.panel))

    Besides 'pack' there's also 'debug_pack' which does not set
constraints, but prints traditional wxLayoutConstraint calls to
stdout.

    The calls to the Layoutf constructor and pack methods have
the following argument list:

    (constraint_string, objects_tuple)

Constraint String syntax:

    Constraint directives are separated by semi-colons. You
generally (always?) need four directives to completely describe a
subwindow's location.

    A single directive has either of the following forms:

    1. <own attribute><compare operation>[numerical argument]
    for example r!100 -> lc.right.Absolute(100) )
    and w* -> lc.width.AsIs()

    2. <own attribute><compare operation>[numerical argument]
       #<compare object nr.>
    for example t_10#2 (lc.top.Below(<second obj>, 10)

    3. <own attribute><compare operation><compare attribute>
       [numerical argument]#<compare object nr.>
    for example w%h50#2 ( lc.width.PercentOf(<second obj>,
    wxHeight, 50) and t=b#1 ( lc.top.SameAs(<first obj>,
    wxBottom) )

    Which one you need is defined by the <compare operation>
type. The following take type 1 (no object to compare with):

    '!': 'Absolute', '?': 'Unconstrained', '*': 'AsIs'

These take type 2 (need to be compared with another object)

    '<': 'LeftOf', '>': 'RightOf', '^': 'Above', '_': 'Below'

These take type 3 (need to be compared to another object
attribute)

    '=': 'SameAs', '%': 'PercentOf'

For all types, the <own attribute> letter can be any of

    't': 'top', 'l': 'left', 'b': 'bottom',
    'r': 'right', 'h': 'height', 'w': 'width',
    'x': 'centreX', 'y': 'centreY'

If the operation takes an (optional) numerical argument, place it
in [numerical argument].  For type 3 directives, the <compare
attribute> letter can be any of

    't': 'wxTop', 'l': 'wxLeft', 'b': 'wxBottom'
    'r': 'wxRight', 'h': 'wxHeight', 'w': 'wxWidth',
    'x': 'wxCentreX', 'y': 'wxCentreY'

Note that these are the same letters as used for <own attribute>,
so you'll only need to remember one set. Finally, the object
whose attribute is refered to, is specified by #<compare object
nr>, where <compare object nr> is the 1-based (stupid, I know,
but I've gotten used to it) index of the object in the
objects_tuple argument.

Bugs:

Not entirely happy about the logic in the order of arguments
after the <compare operation> character.

Not all wxLayoutConstraint methods are included in the
syntax. However, the type 3 directives are generally the most
used. Further excuse: wxWindows layout constraints are at the
time of this writing not documented.
