/// Step 1a) Using this custom control in a XAML file that exists in the current project.
/// Add this XmlNamespace attribute to the root element of the markup file where it is 
/// to be used:
///
///     xmlns:MyNamespace="clr-namespace:MultiTerm.Wpf.CustomControl"
///
///
/// Step 1b) Using this custom control in a XAML file that exists in a different project.
/// Add this XmlNamespace attribute to the root element of the markup file where it is 
/// to be used:
///
///     xmlns:MyNamespace="clr-namespace:MultiTerm.Wpf.CustomControl.MultiFormatTextBox;assembly=MultiTerm.Wpf.CustomControl.MultiFormatTextBox"
///
/// You will also need to add a project reference from the project where the XAML file lives
/// to this project and Rebuild to avoid compilation errors:
///
///     Right click on the target project in the Solution Explorer and

///
///
/// Step 2)
/// Go ahead and use your control in the XAML file.
