-                 windows (wxFrame and wxDialog classes) as the others
-                 are not supposed to have any special OnClose() logic.
-                The close handler should check whether the window is being deleted
-                forcibly, using wxCloseEvent::CanVeto, in which case it should
-                destroy the window using wxWindow::Destroy.
-                Note that calling Close does not guarantee that the window will
-                be destroyed; but it provides a way to simulate a manual close
-                of a window, which may or may not be implemented by destroying
-                the window. The default implementation of wxDialog::OnCloseWindow
-                does not necessarily delete the dialog, since it will simply
-                simulate an wxID_CANCEL event which is handled by the appropriate
-                button event handler and may do anything at all.

+        An event handler is an object that is capable of processing the events sent

+        may wish to substitute another, for example to allow central implementation
+        of event-handling for a variety of different window classes.

+        wxWindow::PushEventHandler allows an application to set up a @e stack
+        of event handlers, where an event not handled by one event handler is
+        handed to the next one in the chain.

 
 

-        By "intelligently" the following is meant: by default, all windows use their
-        own @ref GetClassDefaultAttributes() default attributes.
-        However if some of the parents attributes are explicitly (that is, using
-        SetFont() and not wxWindow::SetOwnFont) changed and if the corresponding
-        attribute hadn't been explicitly set for this window itself, then this
-        window takes the same value as used by the parent.
-        In addition, if the window overrides ShouldInheritColours() to return @false,
-        the colours will not be changed no matter what and only the font might.
+        E.g. if you have two event handlers @c A and @c B and a wxWindow instance
+        @c W and you call:
+        @code
+            W->PushEventHandler(A);
+            W->PushEventHandler(B);

-        This rather complicated logic is necessary in order to accommodate the
-        different usage scenarios. The most common one is when all default attributes
-        are used and in this case, nothing should be inherited as in modern GUIs
-        different controls use different fonts (and colours) than their siblings so
-        they can't inherit the same value from the parent. However it was also deemed
-        desirable to allow to simply change the attributes of all children at once by

-                 interpretation according to the window class; it may be
-                 the text colour or other colour, or it may not be used at all.
+        @remarks Close calls the close handler for the window, providing an
+                 opportunity for the window to choose whether to destroy
+                 the window. Usually it is only used with the top level
+                 windows (wxFrame and wxDialog classes) as the others
+                 are not supposed to have any special OnClose() logic.
+                The close handler should check whether the window is being deleted
+                forcibly, using wxCloseEvent::CanVeto, in which case it should
+                destroy the window using wxWindow::Destroy.
+                Note that calling Close does not guarantee that the window will
+                be destroyed; but it provides a way to simulate a manual close
+                of a window, which may or may not be implemented by destroying
+                the window. The default implementation of wxDialog::OnCloseWindow
+                does not necessarily delete the dialog, since it will simply
+                simulate an wxID_CANCEL event which is handled by the appropriate
+                button event handler and may do anything at all.
+                To guarantee that the window will be destroyed, call
+                wxWindow::Destroy instead
