2 Welcome to wxWindows/Gtk 2.1.14
3
4you have downloaded a beta version of the GTK+ 1.2 port of
5the wxWindows GUI library. Although this is not yet the
6final stable release wxGTK 2.2, the current version has
7been tested carefully on many systems and has been found
8to work better than any other previous version.
9
10This is the last beta release. wxWindows is now in a code
11freeze and only bugs will be corrected.
12
13wxWindows no longer supports GTK 1.0 (as did some early
14snapshots) so that you will need GTK 1.2 when using it.
15GTK 1.2.6 is recommended although somw programs will work
16with GTK 1.2.3 onwards.

28Information on how to install can be found in the file
29INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
30many systems:
31
32./configure --with-gtk
33make
34su <type root password>
35make install
36ldconfig
37exit
38
39When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and
40follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
41please send a bug report to one of our mailing list, INCLUDING
42A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR
43VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR
44WAS REPORTED. I know this has no effect, but I tried...
45
46The library produced by the install process will be called
47libwx_gtk.a (static) and libwx_gtk-2.1.so.14.0.0 (shared) so
48that once a binary incompatible version of wxWindows/Gtk comes
49out we'll augment the library version number to avoid linking
50problems.
51
52Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
53bug reports or comments to the wxWindows users list. Information
54on how to subscribe is available from my homepage.

56Do NOT send any comments directly to me.
