24You will find below the list of all supported platforms for different ports of
25wxWindows 2.x (wxMSW/wxGTK/wxMotif ports only). The cross icon in the third
26column doesn&#39;t always mean that the platform is not supported, but may just
27wxWindows hasn&#39;t been tested on it recently (the table is being updated for
28wxWindows 2.5.1 currently).

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,
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
44often don&#39;t work.
