A GraphicsPath is a representaion of a geometric path, essentially
a collection of lines and curves.  Paths can be used to define
areas to be stroked and filled on a GraphicsContext.

.. class:: dcGraphicsPath(object)

   A GraphicsPath is a representaion of a geometric path, essentially
   a collection of lines and curves.  Paths can be used to define
   areas to be stroked and filled on a GraphicsContext.

   .. method:: __init__(self, parent=None)

      A path is essentially an object that we use just for
      collecting path moves, lines, and curves in order to apply
      them to the real context using DrawPath


   .. method:: AddCurveToPoint(self, cx1, cy1, cx2, cy2, x, y)

      Adds a cubic Bezier curve from the current point, using two
      control points and an end point.


   .. method:: AddLineToPoint(self, x, y)

      Adds a straight line from the current point to (x,y)


   .. method:: AddRectangle(self, x, y, w, h)

      Adds a new rectangle as a closed sub-path.


   .. method:: CloseSubpath(self)

      Adds a line segment to the path from the current point to the
      beginning of the current sub-path, and closes this sub-path.


   .. method:: MoveToPoint(self, x, y)

      Begins a new sub-path at (x,y) by moving the "current point" there.
