I absolutely agree, wxAui is easier on the brain when used a lot,
compared with the brain's language bits having to process wxDocking.
wxAui has quite a pleasing shape to it, and it will be easily recognised
when scanning through code compared with something more verbose. Plus,
if people do a web search for wxAui, they'll get the right thing. With
wxDocking, they'll get a number of different things.
wxAui please!
Thanks,
Julian
