Is it possible to add additional "Standard" buttons to an application?
These are the buttons with ID's like ID_OK, ID_CANCEL. I'd like to have
some additional standard buttons available throughout my application.
I could create a wx.Button descendants and use those, but I'm looking
for a way to create buttons with standard graphics and text just by
specifying the ID.
Thanks,
Mark

Why use the ID mechanism? That's there as kind of a hack to get platform-dependent behavior. What's wrong with:
class MySpecialButton(wx.Button): (or maybe the GenButton in wx.lib)
....
then
MySpecialButton(parent)
etc, etc....
This is, indeed, exactly what subclassing is for!
