+class intercepting check, select and double click events. It also tests
use of various methods modifying the control, such as by deleting items
from it or inserting new ones (these functions are actually implemented in
the parent class \helpref{wxListBox}{wxlistbox} so the sample tests that class
\subsection{Dialup sample}\label{sampledialup}
This sample shows the \helpref{wxDialUpManager}{wxdialupmanager}
-class. It displays in the status bar the information gathered through its
+class. In the status bar, it displays the information gathered through its
interface: in particular, the current connection status (online or offline) and
whether the connection is permanent (in which case a string `LAN' appears in
the third status bar field - but note that you may be on a LAN not
\subsection{Dynamic sample}\label{sampledynamic}

+This sample is a very small sample that demonstrates use of the
\helpref{wxEvtHandler::Connect}{wxevthandlerconnect} method. This method
should be used whenever it is not known at compile time which control
will receive which event or which controls are actually going to be in
The event sample demonstrates various features of the wxWidgets events. It
shows using dynamic events and connecting/disconnecting the event handlers
-during the run time and also using

\helpref{PushEventHandler()}{wxwindowpusheventhandler} and
\helpref{PopEventHandler()}{wxwindowpopeventhandler}.
\subsection{Image sample}\label{sampleimage}
-The image sample demonstrates the use of the \helpref{wxImage}{wximage} class
+The image sample demonstrates use of the \helpref{wxImage}{wximage} class
and shows how to download images in a variety of formats, currently PNG, GIF,
TIFF, JPEG, BMP, PNM and PCX. The top of the sample shows two rectangles, one
of which is drawn directly in the window, the other one is drawn into a
The not very clearly named internat sample demonstrates the wxWidgets
internationalization (i18n for short from now on) features. To be more
precise, it only shows localization support, i.e. support for translating the
-program messages in another language while true i18n would also involve
+program messages into another language while true i18n would also involve
changing the other aspects of the programs behaviour.

\subsection{Scroll subwindow sample}\label{samplescrollsub}
-This sample demonstrates the use of the \helpref{wxScrolledWindow}{wxscrolledwindow}
+This sample demonstrates use of the \helpref{wxScrolledWindow}{wxscrolledwindow}
class including placing subwindows into it and drawing simple graphics. It uses the
\helpref{SetTargetWindow}{wxscrolledwindowsettargetwindow} method and thus the effect
of scrolling does not show in the scrolled window itself, but in one of its subwindows.
The server binds to the local address, using TCP port number 3000,
sets up an event handler to be notified of incoming connection requests
({\bf wxSOCKET\_CONNECTION} events), and sits there, waiting for clients

+({\it listening}, in socket parlance). For each accepted connection,
a new \helpref{wxSocketBase}{wxsocketbase} object is created. These
socket objects are independent from the server that created them, so
they set up their own event handler, and then request to be notified
\subsection{Thread sample}\label{samplethread}

+This sample demonstrates use of threads in connection with GUI programs.
There are two fundamentally different ways to use threads in GUI programs and
either way has to take care of the fact that the GUI library itself usually
is not multi-threading safe, i.e. that it might crash if two threads try to

+This sample demonstrates using the \helpref{wxTreeCtrl}{wxtreectrl} class. Here
you may see how to process various notification messages sent by this control
and also when they occur (by looking at the messages in the text control in
the bottom part of the frame).
