A demo of using wxMenuBar and wxMenu in various ways.
-"""
+A menu is a popup (or pull down) list of items, one of which may be selected
+before the menu goes away (clicking elsewhere dismisses the menu). Menus may be
+used to construct either menu bars or popup menus.
+
+A menu item has an integer ID associated with it which can be used to identify
+the selection, or to change the menu item in some way. A menu item with a special
+identifier -1 is a separator item and doesn't have an associated command but just
+makes a separator line appear in the menu.
+
+Menu items may be either normal items, check items or radio items. Normal items
+don't have any special properties while the check items have a boolean flag associated
+to them and they show a checkmark in the menu when the flag is set. wxWindows
+automatically toggles the flag value when the item is clicked and its value may
+be retrieved using either IsChecked method of wxMenu or wxMenuBar itself or by
+using wxEvent.IsChecked when you get the menu notification for the item in question.
+
+The radio items are similar to the check items except that all the other items
+in the same radio group are unchecked when a radio item is checked. The radio group
+is formed by a contiguous range of radio items, i.e. it starts at the first item of
+this kind and ends with the first item of a different kind (or the end of the menu).
+Notice that because the radio groups are defined in terms of the item positions
+inserting or removing the items in the menu containing the radio items risks to not
+work correctly. Finally note that the radio items are only supported under Windows
+and GTK+ currently.
