<description><p><seeerl marker="wxSystemOptions"><c>wxSystemOptions</c></seeerl> stores option/value pairs that wxWidgets itself or applications can use to alter behaviour at run-time. It can be used to optimize behaviour that doesn't deserve a distinct API, but is still important to be able to configure.
      </p><p>System options can be set by the program itself using <seemfa marker="#setOption/2"><c>setOption/2</c></seemfa> method and they also can be set from the program environment by defining an environment variable <c>wx_option</c> to set the given option for all wxWidgets applications or <c>wx_appname_option</c> to set it just for the application with the given name (as returned by <c>wxApp::GetAppName()</c> (not implemented in wx)). Notice that any characters not allowed in the environment variables names, such as periods and dashes, should be replaced with underscores. E.g. to define a system option "foo-bar" you need to define the environment variable "wx_foo_bar".
      </p><p>The program may use system options for its own needs but they are mostly used to control the behaviour of wxWidgets library itself.
      </p><p>These options are currently recognised by wxWidgets:
      </p><p>All platforms</p> <p>Windows</p> <p>GTK+</p> <p>Mac</p> <p>Motif</p> <p> The compile-time option to include or exclude this functionality is wxUSE_SYSTEM_OPTIONS.
      </p><p>See: <seeerl marker="wxSystemSettings"><c>wxSystemSettings</c></seeerl>
