/**

 * <p>The use of a <code>CompoundEdit</code> is divided in two separate
 * phases.</p>
 *
 * <ol>
 * <li>In the first phase, the <code>CompoundEdit</code> is
 *     initialized.  After a new instance of <code>CompoundEdit</code> has
 *     been created, {@link #addEdit(UndoableEdit)} is called for each
 *     element of the compound.  To terminate the initialization phase,
 *     call {@link #end()}.</li>
 * <li>In the second phase, the the <code>CompoundEdit</code> can be
 *     used, typically by invoking {@link #undo()} and
 *     {@link #redo()}.</li>
