Fourth editing op into the wx frontend. Extract the type-name parse + apply
into core/app/edit.hpp::set_signal_type(Signal*, name) -> {ok, error, type},
failing without mutation on an unrecognised name. The interactive sigtype modal
keeps its own SignalType-cycling path (different interaction, trivial mutation).
The TUI `set-signal-type` command now renders that result (output unchanged).
The wx GUI gains Edit ▸ Set signal type…: a shared PickModule() helper (PickPart
now builds on it) + inline signal choice + a power/gnd/other dropdown, then the
core op, logged as "module/signal: signal type = …" and reflected.
tests/test_edit.cpp: name parsed and applied; unknown name refused without
mutation. 387 core assertions green; tui + wx build clean.

Third editing op in the wx GUI. No core change — app::connect_parts was already
extracted and unit-tested; this is pure wiring. Edit ▸ Connect parts… picks two
parts (PickPart twice, now caption-parameterised to label "first/second part"),
derives their parent modules from Part::prnt, calls app::connect_parts and
renders the same outcomes the TUI does: refused / identity NC fill / connected
(N wires) / failed.
wx builds clean, window opens with no asserts; tui + tests unaffected.

Second editing op into the wx frontend. Extract the logic (parse the .bsd,
apply it to the part, record bsdl_path) into core/app/edit.hpp::attach_bsdl
(Part*, path) -> {ok, error, entity, bound, unbound, ports_total}, failing
without mutation when the file can't be parsed.
The TUI `attach-bsdl` command now renders that result (output unchanged); the
wx GUI gains an Edit ▸ Attach BSDL… menu reusing PickPart() + a .bsd file
dialog. Prune the now-dead bsdl_model include from commands.cpp.
tests/test_edit.cpp: parse failure leaves the part untouched; null part. The
success path is covered by a batch run (entity + bound/total ports). 381 core
assertions green; tui + wx build clean.

First of the editing ops to reach the wx frontend. Extract the business logic
(validate the kind, tag the part, apply the connector model) into
core/app/edit.{hpp,cpp}: app::set_connector_type(Part*, kind) -> {ok, error,
materialised}, refusing without mutation when the kind is invalid for the part.
Both TUI call sites now use it: the `set-connector-type` command and the
interactive settype screen (de-dup) — output unchanged. The wx GUI gains an
Edit ▸ Set connector type… menu: a reusable PickPart() (module → part choice
dialogs) + a kind prompt, then the same core op, logged and reflected in the
model tree. Prune the now-dead pin_model/transform_vpx includes from
commands.cpp.
Unit-tested by tests/test_edit.cpp (free-form kind tags; invalid kind refused
without mutation; null part). tui + wx build clean; 376 core assertions green.

A native wx GUI built entirely on essim_core via the Frontend interface — no
Tui reuse, no command shell. Demonstrates the core/frontends architecture by
adding a real second frontend:
- WxFrontend : public Frontend — owns the System + a console buffer; handles
boot headlessly (restore for --restore/--batch; honest note for source);
Run() boots wx without a generated main (SetInstance + wxEntryStart/
CallOnInit/OnRun) so the shared frontend_main stays in control.
- EssimFrame (wxFrame) — menu-driven window: Load (app::load_module), Restore/
Save (persist), Export (app::export_connections), Verify (app::verify),
rendered into a model tree (modules → parts), an overview + verify-health
panel, and a log. Each handler is a thin wrapper over a core/app op.
- main.cpp: construct WxFrontend, call frontend_main — same 4 lines as tui.
- CMakeLists.txt: find_package(wxWidgets) + essim_add_frontend(wx LIBS …);
select with -DESSIM_FRONTEND=wx. ESSIM_FRONTEND gains wx in its STRINGS.
Set LC_CTYPE from the environment at GUI init so wxString decodes the UTF-8 in
narrow literals (em dash, ellipsis); LC_NUMERIC stays "C". .gitignore: build*/.
Needs libwxgtk3.2-dev. Verified: builds clean (wx 3.2.9 GTK3), window opens and
renders with no wx asserts; --commands-md/--restore/--batch behave headlessly.
