--- Tooltip module for awesome objects.
-- A tooltip is a small hint displayed when the mouse cursor
-- hovers a specific item.
-- In awesome, a tooltip can be linked with almost any
-- object having a <code>add_signal()</code> method and receiving
-- <code>mouse::enter</code> and <code>mouse::leave</code> signals.
-- <p>How to create a tooltip?<br/>
-- <code>
-- myclock = awful.widget.textclock({}, "%T", 1)<br/>
-- myclock_t = awful.tooltip({<br/>
-- objects = { K },<br/>
-- timer_function = function()<br/>
-- return os.date("Today is %A %B %d %Y\nThe time is %T")<br/>
-- end,<br/>
-- })<br/>
-- </code>
-- </p>
-- <p>How to add the same tooltip to several objects?<br/>
-- <code>
-- myclock_t:add_to_object(obj1)<br/>
-- myclock_t:add_to_object(obj2)<br/>
-- </code>
-- Now the same tooltip is attached to <code>K</code>, <code>obj1</code>,
-- <code>obj2</code>.<br/>
-- </p>
-- <p>How to remove tooltip from many objects?<br/>
-- <code>
-- myclock_t:remove_from_object(obj1)<br/>
-- myclock_t:remove_from_object(obj2)<br/>
-- </code>
-- Now the same tooltip is only attached to <code>K</code>.<br/>
-- </p>
