WkNotebook

WkNotebook implements a Windows 95/98/NT flavor notebook (as compared to the Windows 3.1 look provided by the EwWINNotebook widget).

A tab’s width is the page width divided by the number of tabs per row. The top page which is displaying its widgets is represented by the currentPage resource.
