1Welcome to wxWindows Configuration Tool!
2=============================================
3
4wxWindows Configuration Tool is a tool for
5helping to configure wxWindows.
6
7For further information, please see the manual, and the
8following site:

12------------------------------------------------------
13Installing wxWindows Configuration Tool on Windows
14------------------------------------------------------
15
16Run wxconfigtool-x.yz-setup.exe and follow the instructions
17to install wxWindows Configuration Tool.
18
19You should find a shortcut on your desktop, and you can
20also find it in a group similar to this:
21
22Start -> Program Files -> wxWindows Configuration Tool x.y
23
24------------------------------------------------------
25Installing wxWindows Configuration Tool on Unix
26------------------------------------------------------
27
28Unarchive wxconfigtool-x.yz.tar.gz to a suitable location
29in your filesystem. A directory of the form wxconfigtool-x.yz
30(where x.yz is the version number) will be created.
31
32Add the location to your PATH and run the application with
33'wxconfigtool'. You may wish to set the environment variable
34WXCONFIGTOOLDIR so that wxWindows Configuration Tool can find its data files.
35
36For example:
37
38 % cd ~
39 % tar xvfz wxconfigtool-1.01.tar.gz
40 % export WXCONFIGTOOLDIR=`pwd`/wxconfigtool-1.01
41 % export PATH=$PATH:$WXCONFIGTOOLDIR
42 % wxconfigtool
43
44If you don't want to change your PATH, you could place a
45script in a location already on your PATH, such as
46/usr/local/bin. For example:
47
48 #!/bin/sh
49 # Invokes wxWindows Configuration Tool
50 export WXCONFIGTOOLDIR=/home/mydir/wxconfigtool-1.01
51 $WXCONFIGTOOLDIR/wxconfigtool $*
52
53If you wish to associate the wxWindows Configuration Tool file extension
54(pjd) with wxWindows Configuration Tool, you will need to edit your
55~/.mailcap file (or create one if it doesn't exist)
56and add an entry similar to this:
57
58 application/wxconfigtool; wxconfigtool %s
59
60and add this ~/.mime.types:
61
62 type=application/wxconfigtool \
63 desc="wxWindows Configuration Tool Document" \
64 exts="pjd"
