40If you have tested wxWindows on a platform not mentioned here, please tell us about your experience on our mailing list!
41We would especially like to have information about compiling wxGTK on other Unix variants, such as IRIX, DG-UX,
f6bcfd97
BP		 42other flavours of BSD, ... Please note that you will generally need GNU make
43(also known as <tt>gmake</tt>) to compile wxWindows, native make programs
