/// This is an example of the a user defined event display.
/// The user then needs to define how they what to update and plot histograms.
/// The updating of histograms happens for each event.
/// In online mode, the plotting of histograms only happens for each XX events;
/// for offline mode the plotting happens for each event.
///
/// There are two ways that users can decide to update and plot histograms:
///
/// 1) They can create histograms in their event display class and then fill 
///    the methods UpdateHistograms(TMidasEvent*) and PlotCanvas(TMidasEvent*).
///    This histograms can then file in the canvases that are added using 
///    AddSingleCanvas(std::string name).
///
///    In this example this method is used for the histogram sizeBankFR10,
///    which is just a histogram of the size of the bank called "FR10".
///
/// 2) They can create classes that are derived from TCanvasHandleBase.  The derived
///    classes are then added using the method AddSingleCanvas(TCanvasHandleBase* handleClass).
///    In this example there are two classes derived from TCanvasHandleBase:
///      a) TSimpleExampleCanvas: this class just creates a tab/canvas with a
///         histogram of the size of the bank called "FR11".
///      a) TComplicatedExampleCanvas: this class creates a set of four different
///         canvases/histograms which the user can select using a ROOT number widget.
///    
/// The actual ROOT GUI is encapsulated in a separate class TMainDisplayWindow.
/// The TRootanaDisplay has an instance of this TMainDisplayWindow class.
/// Users will be need to access the TMainDisplayWindow by calling
///
/// TRootanaDisplay::GetDisplayWindow()
/// 
/// in order to grab the particular canvas that we want plot on.
