I am pasting my code. I created a small little GUI without any
functionality as of yet. I wanted to ask few questions on that.

If I click on any of the items of the File Menu, say I click on "Open
config File", I want a new windows to come up.
My questions is when I create a new Frame/Windows in wxGlade, will it
be wxFrame or wxMDI Frame......which one should I choose and why ?
I am not completely aware of all the small tools that wxGlade gives and
how to place them.
Any kind of help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
