A wx:style-list% object contains a set of wx:style% objects and maintains the hierarchical relationships between them. A wx:style% object can only be created through the methods of a wx:style-list% object. There is a global style list object, wx:the-style-list, but any number of independent lists can be created for separate style hierarchies. Each buffer creates its own private style list.
See Styles for more information.
The root style, named "Basic", is automatically created.
