 // Keyboard input event class
 
 
 // Keyboard input event class
 

+DocStr(wxKeyEvent,
+"This event class contains information about keypress and character
+events.  These events are only sent to the widget that currently has
+the keyboard focus.
+
+Notice that there are three different kinds of keyboard events in
+wxWidgets: key down and up events and char events. The difference
+between the first two is clear - the first corresponds to a key press
+and the second to a key release - otherwise they are identical. Just
+note that if the key is maintained in a pressed state you will
+typically get a lot of (automatically generated) down events but only
+one up so it is wrong to assume that there is one up event
+corresponding to each down one.
+
+Both key events provide untranslated key codes while the char event
+carries the translated one. The untranslated code for alphanumeric
+keys is always an upper case value. For the other keys it is one of
+WXK_XXX values from the keycodes table. The translated key is, in
+general, the character the user expects to appear as the result of the
+key combination when typing the text into a text entry zone, for
+example.
+
+A few examples to clarify this (all assume that CAPS LOCK is unpressed
+and the standard US keyboard): when the 'A' key is pressed, the key
+down event key code is equal to ASCII A == 65. But the char event key
+code is ASCII a == 97. On the other hand, if you press both SHIFT and
+'A' keys simultaneously , the key code in key down event will still be
+just 'A' while the char event key code parameter will now be 'A' as
+well.
+
+Although in this simple case it is clear that the correct key code
+could be found in the key down event handler by checking the value
+returned by `ShiftDown`, in general you should use EVT_CHAR for this
+as for non alphanumeric keys or non-US keyboard layouts the
+translation is keyboard-layout dependent and can only be done properly
+by the system itself.
+
+Another kind of translation is done when the control key is pressed:
+for example, for CTRL-A key press the key down event still carries the
+same key code 'A' as usual but the char event will have key code of 1,
+the ASCII value of this key combination.
+
+You may discover how the other keys on your system behave
+interactively by running the KeyEvents sample in the wxPython demo and
+pressing some keys while the blue box at the top has the keyboard
+focus.
+
+**Note**: If a key down event is caught and the event handler does not
+call event.Skip() then the coresponding char event will not
+happen. This is by design and enables the programs that handle both
+types of events to be a bit simpler.
+
+**Note for Windows programmers**: The key and char events in wxWidgets
+are similar to but slightly different from Windows WM_KEYDOWN and
+WM_CHAR events. In particular, Alt-x combination will generate a char
+event in wxWidgets (unless it is used as an accelerator).
+
+**Tip**: be sure to call event.Skip() for events that you don't
+process in key event function, otherwise menu shortcuts may cease to
+work under Windows.

+DocStr(wxUpdateUIEvent,
+"This class is used for EVT_UPDATE_UI pseudo-events which are sent by
+wxWidgets to give an application the chance to update various user
+interface elements.
+
+Without update UI events, an application has to work hard to
+check/uncheck, enable/disable, and set the text for elements such as
+menu items and toolbar buttons. The code for doing this has to be
+mixed up with the code that is invoked when an action is invoked for a
+menu item or button.
+
+With update UI events, you define an event handler to look at the
+state of the application and change UI elements accordingly. wxWidgets
+will call your handler functions in idle time, so you don't have to
+worry where to call this code. In addition to being a clearer and more
+declarative method, it also means you don't have to worry whether
+you're updating a toolbar or menubar identifier. The same handler can
+update a menu item and toolbar button, if the ID values are the same.
+
+Instead of directly manipulating the menu or button, you call
+functions in the event object, such as `Check`. wxWidgets will
+determine whether such a call has been made, and which UI element to
+update.
+
+These events will work for popup menus as well as menubars. Just
+before a menu is popped up, `wx.Menu.UpdateUI` is called to process
+any UI events for the window that owns the menu.
+
+If you find that the overhead of UI update processing is affecting
+your application, you can do one or both of the following:
+
+   1. Call `wx.UpdateUIEvent.SetMode` with a value of
+      wx.UPDATE_UI_PROCESS_SPECIFIED, and set the extra style
+      wx.WS_EX_PROCESS_UPDATE_EVENTS for every window that should
+      receive update events. No other windows will receive update
+      events.
+
+   2. Call `wx.UpdateUIEvent.SetUpdateInterval` with a millisecond
+      value to set the delay between updates. You may need to call
+      `wx.Window.UpdateWindowUI` at critical points, for example when
+      a dialog is about to be shown, in case the user sees a slight
+      delay before windows are updated.
+
+Note that although events are sent in idle time, defining a EVT_IDLE
+handler for a window does not affect this because the events are sent
+from an internal idle handler.
+
+wxWidgets tries to optimize update events on some platforms. On
+Windows and GTK+, events for menubar items are only sent when the menu
+is about to be shown, and not in idle time.
