DocStr(wxBitmap,
"The wx.Bitmap class encapsulates the concept of a platform-dependent
bitmap.  It can be either monochrome or colour, and either loaded from
a file or created dynamically.  A bitmap can be selected into a memory
device context (instance of `wx.MemoryDC`). This enables the bitmap to
be copied to a window or memory device context using `wx.DC.Blit`, or
to be used as a drawing surface.", "

The BMP and XMP image file formats are supported on all platforms by
wx.Bitmap.  Other formats are automatically loaded by `wx.Image` and
converted to a wx.Bitmap, so any image file format supported by
`wx.Image` can be used.

:todo: Add wrappers and support for raw bitmap data access.  Can this
       be be put into Python without losing the speed benefits of the
       teplates and iterators in rawbmp.h?

:todo: Find a way to do very efficient PIL Image <--> wx.Bitmap
       converstions.
