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
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.
