<p>This module provides a publish-subscribe component that allows
listeners to subcribe to messages of a given topic. Contrary to the
original wxPython.lib.pubsub module (which it is based on), it uses
weak referencing to the subscribers so the lifetime of subscribers
is not affected by Publisher. Also, callable objects can be used in
addition to functions and bound methods. See Publisher class docs for
more details.</p>
<p>Thanks to Robb Shecter and Robin Dunn for having provided
the basis for this module (which now shares most of the concepts but
very little design or implementation with the original
wxPython.lib.pubsub).</p>
<p>The publisher is a singleton instance of the PublisherClass class. You
access the instance via the Publisher object available from the module:</p>

<dd><p>The publish/subscribe manager. It keeps track of which listeners
are interested in which topics (see subscribe()), and sends a
Message for a given topic to listeners that have subscribed to
that topic, with optional user data (see sendMessage()).</p>
<p>The three important concepts for Publisher are:</p>
<ul>
<li><p class="first">listener: a function, bound method or
callable object that can be called with one parameter
(not counting ‘self’ in the case of methods). The parameter
will be a reference to a Message object. E.g., these listeners
are ok:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre>class Foo:
def __call__(self, a, b=1): pass # can be called with only one arg
def meth(self, a): pass # takes only one arg
def meth2(self, a=2, b=''): pass # can be called with one arg
def func(a, b=''): pass
Foo foo
Publisher().subscribe(foo) # functor
Publisher().subscribe(foo.meth) # bound method
Publisher().subscribe(foo.meth2) # bound method
Publisher().subscribe(func) # function
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The three types of callables all have arguments that allow a call
with only one argument. In every case, the parameter ‘a’ will contain
the message.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">topic: a single word, a tuple of words, or a string containing a
set of words separated by dots, for example: ‘sports.baseball’.
A tuple or a dotted notation string denotes a hierarchy of
topics from most general to least. For example, a listener of
this topic:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">'sports'</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="s">'baseball'</span><span class="p">)</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>would receive messages for these topics:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="p">(</span><span class="s">'sports'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">'baseball'</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="c"># because same</span>
<span class="p">(</span><span class="s">'sports'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">'baseball'</span><span class="p">,</span> <span class="s">'highscores'</span><span class="p">)</span> <span class="c"># because more specific</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>but not these:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre> 'sports' # because more general
('sports',) # because more general
() or ('') # because only for those listening to 'all' topics
('news') # because different topic
</pre></div>
</div>
</li>
<li><p class="first">message: this is an instance of Message, containing the topic for
which the message was sent, and any data the sender specified.</p>
</li>
