  32 A book control is a convenient way of displaying multiple pages of information,
  33 displayed one page at a time. wxWidgets has five variants of this control:
  34
  35 @li wxChoicebook: controlled by a wxChoice
  36 @li wxListbook: controlled by a wxListCtrl
  37 @li wxNotebook: uses a row of tabs
  38 @li wxTreebook: controlled by a wxTreeCtrl
  39 @li wxToolbook: controlled by a wxToolBar

  41 See the @ref page_utils_samples_notebook for an example of wxBookCtrl usage.
