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

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