However, usually you don't even need to know the precise nature of the class
you're working with but you would just use the wxConfigBase methods. This
platform: i.e. wxRegConfig under Win32, wxIniConfig under Win16 and
wxFileConfig otherwise.

-\membersection{Static functions}
+\membersection{Static functions}\label{wxconfigstaticfunctions}
These functions deal with the "default" config object. Although its usage is
not at all mandatory it may be convenient to use a global config object
one (especially because creating a wxFileConfig object might be a time
consuming operation). In this case, you may create this global config object
in the very start of the program and {\it Set()} it as the default. Then, from
-anywhere in your program, you may access it using the {\it Get()} function. Of
-course, you should delete it on the program termination (otherwise, not only a
-memory leak will result, but even more importantly the changes won't be
-written back!).
+anywhere in your program, you may access it using the {\it Get()} function.
+Note that wxWindows will delete this config object for you during the program
+shutdown (from \helpref{wxApp::OnExit}{wxapponexit} to be precise) but you can
+also do it yourself earlier if needed.
As it happens, you may even further simplify the procedure described above:
you may forget about calling {\it Set()}. When {\it Get()} is called and there
is no current object, it will create one using {\it Create()} function. To
disable this behaviour {\it DontCreateOnDemand()} is provided.
+{\bf Note:} You should use either {\it Set()} or {\it Get()} because wxWindows
+library itself would take advantage of it and could save various information
+in it. For example \helpref{wxFontMapper}{wxfontmapper} or Unix version
+of \helpref{wxFileDialog}{wxfiledialog} have ability to use wxConfig class.

+As explained in \helpref{config overview}{wxconfigoverview}, the config classes
+support a file system-like hierarchy of keys (files) and groups (directories).
As in the file system case, to specify a key in the config class you must use
a path to it. Config classes also support the notion of the current group,
which makes it possible to use the relative paths. To clarify all this, here
