/// Echo object at mouse position and show a graphics line.
/// Example of macro called when a mouse event occurs in a pad.
///
/// Example:
/// ~~~{.cpp}
///   TFile::Open("hsimple.root");
///   hpxpy->Draw("colz");
///   gPad->AddExec("ex2", ".x exec2.C");
/// ~~~
/// When moving the mouse in the canvas, a second canvas shows the
/// projection along X of the bin corresponding to the Y position
/// of the mouse. The resulting histogram is fitted with a gaussian.
/// A "dynamic" line shows the current bin position in Y.
/// This more elaborated example can be used as a starting point
/// to develop more powerful interactive applications exploiting CLING
/// as a development engine.
