I first update my control, and then set if it should be enabled or

When running update(), self.Enabled is set to self.enabled. Why are
there two variables?
I can just use enabled instead of Enabled here, but that would mean a
different interface for the controls.
Enabled is the Dabo property that should be used. 'enabled' is a
local, 'internal-use only' attribute that should probably be named
'_enabled' to indicate its purpose. I'm sure that this was written in
the early days of Dabo development when we hadn't settled on our
naming conventions.
Setting the attribute 'enabled' doesn't do anything in and of
itself; it is the action of setting the Dabo property 'Enabled' that
actually calls the underlying toolkit's methods to enable/disable the
control - in this case, it calls wxPython's self.Enable(bool)
function; with other toolkits in the future, it will call the
appropriate command.
