connections.

\subsection{DnD sample}\label{samplednd}

Take a look at DnDShapeDataObject class to see how you may use
\helpref{wxDataObject}{wxdataobject} to achieve this.

It replaces the old dynamic sample.
+
+\subsection{Except(ions) sample}\label{sampleexcept}
+
+This very simple sample shows how to use C++ exceptions in wxWindows programs,
+i.e. where to catch the exception which may be thrown by the program code. It
+doesn't do anything very exciting by itself, you need to study its code to
+understand what goes on.
+
+You need to build the library with \texttt{wxUSE\_EXCEPTIONS} being set to $1$
+and compile your code with the C++ exceptions support to be able to build this
+sample.
+
+
\subsection{Exec sample}\label{sampleexec}
The exec sample demonstrates the \helpref{wxExecute}{wxexecute} and
\helpref{wxProcess::Kill}{wxprocesskill} and test for their existence with
\helpref{wxProcess::Exists}{wxprocessexists}.

available (to wxWindows) on the computer and shows all characters of the
chosen font as well.

\subsection{HTML samples}\label{samplehtml}
Eight HTML samples (you can find them in directory {\tt samples/html})
while {\it Helpview} is simple tool that only pops up help window and
displays help books given at command line.
+
\subsection{Image sample}\label{sampleimage}
The image sample demonstrates the use of the \helpref{wxImage}{wximage} class
bitmap is then converted to a wxImage and the foreground colour (black) is
replaced with red using \helpref{wxImage::Replace}{wximagereplace}.
+
+\subsection{Internat(ionalization) sample}\label{sampleinternat}
+
+The not very clearly named internat sample demonstrates the wxWindows
+internatationalization (i18n for short from now on) features. To be more
+precise, it only shows localization support, i.e. support for translating the
+program messages in another language while true i18n would also involve
+changing the other aspects of the programs behaviour.
+
+More information about this sample can be found in the {\tt readme.txt} file in
+its directory. Please see also \helpref{i18n overview}{internationalization}.
