@class wxSimplebook
wxSimplebook is a control showing exactly one of its several pages.
It implements wxBookCtrlBase class interface but doesn't allow the user to
change the page being displayed, unlike all the other book control classes,
only the program can do it.
This class is created in the same manner as any other wxBookCtrl but then
the program will typically call ChangeSelection() to show different pages.
See the @ref page_samples_notebook for an example of wxSimplebook in
action.
Notice that it is often convenient to use ShowNewPage() instead of the base
class AddPage().
There are no special styles defined for this class as it has no visual
appearance of its own.
There are also no special events, this class reuses
@c wxEVT_BOOKCTRL_PAGE_CHANGING and @c
wxEVT_BOOKCTRL_PAGE_CHANGED events for the events it generates if
the program calls SetSelection().

by the program and not the user himself, it may be useful to use some
