[Wxsqueak] How/Where do I find GUI object params, e.g., for Checkbox: style: wxNoBorder

[Rob Gayvert]

Brooks,

Constants like wxNoBorder are in the pool dictionary WxConstants. 
Classes like WxBase and WxPresenter include this in their definitions, 
so most GUI classes will inherit this. The values of some constants vary 
across different platforms, so it's loaded each time at startup from the 
VM (see WxBase class>>initializeConstants).
