23You will find below the list of all supported platforms for different ports of wxWindows 2.x (wxMSW/wxGTK/wxMotif ports
24only). The cross icon in the third column doesn't mean that the platform is not supported, but just that wxWindows hasn't

25been tested on it recently (the table is being updated for wxWindows 2.1.14
26beta currently).

30If you have tested wxWindows on a platform not mentioned here, please tell us about your experience on our mailing list!
31We would especially like to have information about compiling wxGTK on other Unix variants, such as IRIX, DG-UX,
f6bcfd97
BP
32other flavours of BSD, ... Please note that you will generally need GNU make
33(also known as <tt>gmake</tt>) to compile wxWindows, native make programs
34often don't work.
