     This class encapsulates the concept of a platform-dependent bitmap,

     If you need direct access the bitmap data instead going through

     class (either wxNativePixelData for RGB bitmaps or wxAlphaPixelData
-    for bitmaps with an additionaly alpha channel).

-    Many wxBitmap functions take a @e type parameter, which is a value of the
-    ::wxBitmapType enumeration.
+    Note that many wxBitmap functions take a @e type parameter, which is a 
+    value of the ::wxBitmapType enumeration.
     The validity of those values depends however on the platform where your program
     is running and from the wxWidgets configuration.
-    If all possible wxWidgets settings are used, the Windows platform supports BMP file,
-    BMP resource, XPM data, and XPM.
-    Under wxGTK, the available formats are BMP file, XPM data, XPM file, and PNG file.
-    Under wxMotif, the available formats are XBM data, XBM file, XPM data, XPM file.
-    In addition, wxBitmap can load and save all formats that wxImage; see wxImage for
-    more info. Of course, you must have wxImage handlers loaded.
+    If all possible wxWidgets settings are used:
+    - wxMSW supports BMP and ICO files, BMP and ICO resources;
+    - wxGTK supports XPM files;
+    - wxMac supports PICT resources;
+    - wxX11 supports XPM files, XPM data, XBM data;
+
+    In addition, wxBitmap can load and save all formats that wxImage can; see wxImage
+    for more info. Of course, you must have loaded the wxImage handlers 
+    (see ::wxInitAllImageHandlers() and wxImage::AddHandler).
+    Note that all available wxBitmapHandlers for a given wxWidgets port are 
+    automatically loaded at startup so you won't need to use wxBitmap::AddHandler.
+
+    More on the difference between wxImage and wxBitmap: wxImage is just a
+    buffer of RGB bytes with an optional buffer for the alpha bytes. It is all
+    generic, platform independent and image file format independent code. It
+    includes generic code for scaling, resizing, clipping, and other manipulations
+    of the image data. OTOH, wxBitmap is intended to be a wrapper of whatever is
+    the native image format that is quickest/easiest to draw to a DC or to be the
+    target of the drawing operations performed on a wxMemoryDC. By splitting the
+    responsibilities between wxImage/wxBitmap like this then it's easier to use
+    generic code shared by all platforms and image types for generic operations and
+    platform specific code where performance or compatibility is needed.
