-GDIMetaFile class
-=================
-
-The GDIMetaFile class reads, writes, manipulates and replays metafiles via the VCL module.
-
-A typical usecase is to intialize a new GDIMetaFile, open the actual stored metafile and
-read it in via GDIMetaFile::Read( aIStream ). This reads in the metafile into the GDIMetafile
-object - it can read in an old-style VCLMTF metafile (back in the days that Microsoft didn't
-document the metafile format this was used), as well as EMF+ files - and adds them to a list
-(vector) of MetaActions. You can also populate your own GDIMetaFile via AddAction(),
-RemoveAction(), ReplaceAction(), etc.
-
-Once the GDIMetafile object is read to be used, you can "play" the metafile, pause it, wind
-forward or rewind the metafile. The metafile can be moved, scaled, rotated and clipped, as
-well have the colours adjusted or replaced, or even made monochrome.
-
-The GDIMetafile can be used to get an OutputDevice's metafile via the Linker() and Record()
-functions.
-
-
-Using GDIMetafile
------------------
-
-First, create a new GDIMetafile, this can be done via the default constructor. It can then
-be constructed manually, or you can use Record() on an OutputDevice to populate the
-GDIMetaFile, or of course you can read it from file with Read(). From here you can then
-elect to manipulate the metafile, or play it back to another GDIMetafile or to an
-OutputDevice via Play(). To store the file, use Write().
