Vadim Zeitlin 526954c596 Globally use "wxWindows licence" consistently.
Use "wxWindows licence" and not "wxWidgets licence" (the latter doesn't
exist) and consistently spell "licence" using British spelling.

See #12165.

@class wxTipWindow
Shows simple text in a popup tip window on creation.
This is used by wxSimpleHelpProvider to show popup help.
The window automatically destroys itself when the user clicks on it or it
loses the focus.
You may also use this class to emulate the tooltips when you need finer
control over them than what the standard tooltips provide.

also automatically close if the mouse leaves this area. This is useful to
dismiss the tip mouse when the mouse leaves the object it is associated with.
