70 // The event tables connect the wxWidgets events with the functions (event

72 // simple menu events like this the static method is much simpler.
73 // The reason why the menuitems and tools are given the same name in the
74 // XRC file, is that both a tool (a toolbar item) and a menuitem are designed
75 // to fire the same kind of event (an EVT_MENU) and thus I give them the same
76 // ID name to help new users emphasize this point which is often overlooked
77 // when starting out with wxWidgets.
