NAME

       wxControl - Functions for wxControl class

DESCRIPTION

       This is the base class for a control or "widget".

       A  control  is  generally a small window which processes user input and/or displays one or
       more item of data.

       See: wxValidator (not implemented in wx)

       This class is derived (and can use functions) from: wxWindow wxEvtHandler

       wxWidgets docs: wxControl

EVENTS

       Event   types   emitted   from   this    class:    command_text_copy,    command_text_cut,
       command_text_paste

DATA TYPES

       wxControl() = wx:wx_object()

EXPORTS

       getLabel(This) -> unicode:charlist()

              Types:

                 This = wxControl()

              Returns the control's label, as it was passed to setLabel/2.

              Note  that the returned string may contains mnemonics ("&" characters) if they were
              passed to the setLabel/2 function; use GetLabelText() (not implemented  in  wx)  if
              they are undesired.

              Also  note  that  the  returned  string  is  always  the string which was passed to
              setLabel/2 but may be different from  the  string  passed  to  SetLabelText()  (not
              implemented in wx) (since this last one escapes mnemonic characters).

       setLabel(This, Label) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxControl()
                 Label = unicode:chardata()

              Sets the control's label.

              All  "&"  characters  in  the  label  are  special  and indicate that the following
              character is a mnemonic for this control and can be used to activate  it  from  the
              keyboard  (typically  by using Alt key in combination with it). To insert a literal
              ampersand character, you need to double it, i.e. use "&&".  If  this  behaviour  is
              undesirable, use SetLabelText() (not implemented in wx) instead.
