FancyText -- methods for rendering XML specified text

This module exports four main methods::

    def GetExtent(str, dc=None, enclose=True)
    def GetFullExtent(str, dc=None, enclose=True)
    def RenderToBitmap(str, background=None, enclose=True)
    def RenderToDC(str, dc, x, y, enclose=True)

In all cases, 'str' is an XML string. Note that start and end tags are only required if *enclose* is set to False. In this case the text should be wrapped in FancyText tags.

In addition, the module exports one class::

    class StaticFancyText(self, window, id, text, background, ...)

This class works similar to StaticText except it interprets its text as FancyText.

The text can support^superscripts and _subscripts, text in different sizes, colors, styles, weights and families. It also supports a limited set of symbols, currently , , as well as greek letters in both upper case (...) and lower case (...).
