wxWizard is the central class for implementing `wizard-like' dialogs. These
dialogs are mostly familiar to Windows users and are nothing else but a
sequence of `pages' each of them displayed inside a dialog which has the
-buttons to pas to the next (and previous) pages.
+buttons to pass to the next (and previous) pages.
The wizards are typically used to decompose a complex dialog into several
simple steps and are mainly useful to the novice users, hence it is important
to keep them as simple as possible.
To show a wizard dialog, you must first create an object of wxWizard class
-using \helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate} function. Then you should add all pages
-you want the wizard to show and call \helpref{RunWizard}{wxwizardrunwizard}.
+using either the non default constructor or a default one followed by call to
+\helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate} function. Then you should add all pages you
+want the wizard to show and call \helpref{RunWizard}{wxwizardrunwizard}.
Finally, don't forget to call {\tt wizard->Destroy()}.

+Constructor which really creates the wizard -- if you use this constructor, you
+shouldn't call \helpref{Create}{wxwizardcreate}.

+Notice that unlike almost all other wxWindows classes, there is no {\it size}

-can not be {\tt NULL}.
+Sets the page size to be big enough for all the pages accessible via the
+given {\it firstPage}, i.e. this page, its next page and so on.
+
+This method may be called more than once and it will only change the page size
+if the size required by the new page is bigger than the previously set one.
+This is useful if the decision about which pages to show is taken during the
+run-time as in this case, the wizard won't be able to get to all pages starting
+from a single one and you should call {\it Fit} separately for the others.
