Wow, that sounds like a really difficult to maintain way to update.
In the future I'd recommend Web Update, but that wouldn't have helped
much here, as I haven't yet pushed this revision to Web Update. I was
going to follow up this morning with instructions for updating to test
things, but it seems you've already figured out a way to do this.

This is probably the biggest issue with working at the wx-level:
confusion of naming. 'Bind' is a wx method; at the Dabo layer, you
want to use 'self.bindEvent'.
Also, Dabo has a few built-in naming conventions to automate event
binding. If you name a method 'onFoo' (note the initial lower-case
'o'), and there is a Dabo event named 'Foo', that method will
automatically be bound to the Foo event for you. In this case, in your
dEditor subclass, if you had named your method
'onEditorStyleNeeded()', you wouldn't even need a call to bindEvent().
