-    An MDI (Multiple Document Interface) parent frame is a window which can contain
-    MDI child frames in its own 'desktop'. It is a convenient way to avoid window
-    clutter, and is used in many popular Windows applications, such as Microsoft Word(TM).
+    An MDI (Multiple Document Interface) parent frame is a window which can
+    contain MDI child frames in its client area which emulates the full
+    desktop.
+
+    MDI is a user-interface model in which all the window reside inside the
+    single parent window as opposed to being separate from each other. It
+    remains popular despite dire warnings from Microsoft itself (which
+    popularized this model in the first model) that MDI is obsolete.
+
+    An MDI parent frame always has a wxMDIClientWindow associated with it,
+    which is the parent for MDI child frames. In the simplest case, the client
+    window takes up the entire parent frame area but it is also possible to
+    resize it to be smaller in order to have other windows in the frame, a
+    typical example is using a sidebar along one of the window edges.
+
+    The appearance of MDI applications differs between different ports. The
+    classic MDI model, with child windows which can be independently moved,
+    resized etc, is only available under MSW, which provides native support for
+    it. In Mac ports, multiple top level windows are used for the MDI children
+    too and the MDI parent frame itself is invisible, to accommodate the native
+    look and feel requirements. In all the other ports, a tab-based MDI
+    implementation (sometimes called TDI) is used and so at most one MDI child
+    is visible at any moment (child frames are always maximized).

 
     @remarks
 
 
     @remarks
 

-    There may be multiple MDI parent frames in a single application, but this probably
-    only makes sense within programming development environments.
-
-    Child frames may be of class wxMDIChildFrame (contained within the parent frame)
-    or wxFrame (shown as a top-level frame).
-
-    An MDI parent frame always has a wxMDIClientWindow associated with it, which is the
-    parent for MDI child frames. This client window may be resized to accommodate non-MDI
-    windows, as seen in Microsoft Visual C++ (TM) and Microsoft Publisher (TM), where
-    a documentation window is placed to one side of the workspace.
+    Although it is possible to have multiple MDI parent frames, a typical MDI
+    application has a single MDI parent frame window inside which multiple MDI
+    child frames, i.e. objects of class wxMDIChildFrame, can be created.

 
 

-    MDI remains popular despite dire warnings from Microsoft itself that MDI is an obsolete
-    user interface style.

 
 

-    The implementation is native in Windows, and simulated under Motif. Under Motif, the
-    child window frames will often have a different appearance from other frames because
-    the window decorations are simulated.

+    There are no special styles for this class, all wxFrame styles apply to it
+    in the usual way. The only exception is that wxHSCROLL and wxVSCROLL styles
+    apply not to the frame itself but to the client window, so that using them
+    enables horizontal and vertical scrollbars for this window and not the
+    frame.

-        to find how much space there is for your windows.

+        needed (usually when the frame itself is deleted or when
+        SetWindowMenu() is called again).
+
+        To remove the window completely, you can use the wxFRAME_NO_WINDOW_MENU
+        window style but this function also allows to do it by passing @NULL
+        pointer as @a menu.
+
+        The menu may include the items with the following standard identifiers
+        (but may use arbitrary text and help strings and bitmaps for them):
+            - @c wxID_MDI_WINDOW_CASCADE
+            - @c wxID_MDI_WINDOW_TILE_HORZ
+            - @c wxID_MDI_WINDOW_TILE_VERT
+            - @c wxID_MDI_WINDOW_ARRANGE_ICONS
+            - @c wxID_MDI_WINDOW_PREV
+            - @c wxID_MDI_WINDOW_NEXT
+        All of which are handled by wxMDIParentFrame itself. If any other
+        commands are used in the menu, the derived frame should handle them.
+
+        This function is currently not available under OS X.
+
+        @param menu
