 The verbose messages are the trace messages which are not disabled in the
 several minutes, allows you to do anything you want).
 
 The verbose messages are the trace messages which are not disabled in the

-release mode and are generated by {\it wxLogVerbose()}. They are not normally
-shown to the user because they present little interest, but may be activated,
-for example, in order to help the user find some program problem.
-
-As for the (real) trace messages, they come in different kinds:
-
-\begin{itemize}\itemsep=0pt
-\item{wxTraceMemAlloc} for the messages about creating and deleting objects
-\item{wxTraceMessages} for tracing the windowing system messages/events
-\item{wxTraceResAlloc} for allocating and releasing the system ressources
-\item{wxTraceRefCount} for reference counting related messages
-\item{wxTraceOleCalls} for the OLE (or COM) method invocations (wxMSW only)
-\item{other} the remaining bits are free for user-defined trace levels
-\end{itemize}
-
-The trace mask is a bit mask which tells which (if any) of these trace
-messages are going to be actually logged. For the trace message to appear
-somewhere, all the bits in the mask used in the call to {\it wxLogTrace()} 
-function must be set in the current trace mask. For example,
+release mode and are generated by \helpref{wxLogVerbose}{wxlogverbose}. They
+are not normally shown to the user because they present little interest, but
+may be activated, for example, in order to help the user find some program
+problem.
+
+As for the (real) trace messages, their handling depends on the settings of
+the (application global) {\it trace mask}. There are two ways to specify it:
+either by using \helpref{SetTraceMask}{wxlogsettracemask} and 
+\helpref{GetTraceMask}{wxloggettracemask} and using 
+\helpref{wxLogTrace}{wxlogtrace} which takes an integer mask or by using 
+\helpref{AddTraceMask}{wxlogaddtracemask} for string trace masks.
+
+The difference between bit-wise and string trace masks is that a message using
+integer trace mask will only be logged if all bits of the mask are set in the
+current mask while a message using string mask will be logged simply if the
+mask had been added before to the list of allowed ones.
+
+For example,
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+// wxTraceOleCalls is one of standard bit masks
+wxLogTrace(wxTraceRefCount | wxTraceOleCalls, "Active object ref count: %d", nRef);
+\end{verbatim}
+will do something only if the current trace mask contains both 
+{\tt wxTraceRefCount} and {\tt wxTraceOle}, but
+
+\begin{verbatim}
+// wxTRACE_OleCalls is one of standard string masks
+wxLogTrace(wxTRACE_OleCalls, "IFoo::Bar() called");
+\end{verbatim}
+
+will log the message if it was preceded by
+

 \begin{verbatim}
 \begin{verbatim}

-wxLogTrace(wxTraceRefCount | wxTraceOle, "Active object ref count: %d", nRef);
+wxLog::AddTraceMask(wxTRACE_OleCalls);

 \end{verbatim}
 \end{verbatim}

-will do something only if the current trace mask contains both wxTraceRefCount
-and wxTraceOle.
+
+Using string masks is simpler and allows to easily add custom ones, so this is
+the preferred way of working with trace messages. The integer trace mask is
+kept for compatibility and for additional (but very rarely needed) flexibility
+only.
+
+The standard trace masks are given in \helpref{wxLogTrace}{wxlogtrace} 
+documentation.
