        """Helper class for sending signals

        This class allows sending signals without worrying about what message they
        are defined in. It does this by binding a message and all its signals to
        the same `Frame` object.

        Objects are created by giving them a `Dbc` database, and optionally a list
        of messages (either names or `canlib.kvadblib.Message` objects)::

          db = Dbc(...)
          framebox = FrameBox(db, messages=('Msg0','Msg1'))

        Messages can also be added after instantiation with `add_message`::

          framebox.add_message('Msg0', 'Msg1')

        Then setting signal values for any added message is done with::

          framebox.signal('Sig0').phys = 7
          framebox.signal('Sig1').phys = 20

        Once all values are set, they can easily be sent via the channel `channel` with::

          for frame in framebox.frames():
            channel.write(frame)

        Any `Framebox` methods that return messages requires the message to have
        been added to the framebox, either with the ``messages`` constructor
        argument or with `add_message`. Likewise, any methods that return signals
        require the signal's message to have been added.
