This is a simple scoped smart pointer implementation that is similar to
the \urlref{Boost}{http://www.boost.org} smart pointers but rewritten to
\end{verbatim}
A smart pointer holds a pointer to an object (which must be complete
-when wxDEFINE_SCOPED_PTR() is called). The memory used by the object is
+when wxDEFINE\_SCOPED\_PTR() is called). The memory used by the object is
deleted when the smart pointer goes out of scope. The first argument
of the macro is the pointer type, the second is the name of the new
smart pointer class being created. Below we will use wxScopedPtr to
Creates the smart pointer with the given pointer or none if NULL. On
compilers that support it, this uses the explicit keyword.

This operator works like the standard C++ pointer operator to return the pointer
in the smart pointer or NULL if it is empty.
