   2   Welcome to wxWindows/X11 2.3.2
   3
   4 You have downloaded version 2.3.2 of the X11 port of
   5 the wxWindows GUI library. This runs on X11 with no
   6 Motif, Xt, GTK+ or any other standard widget set --
   7 instead it uses the wxUniversal widgets. The intention
   8 is to have it run on NanoX as well as desktop X11.

  10 More information about the wxWindows project as a whole
  11 can be found at:
  12
  13   http://www.wxwindows.org

  15 Information on how to install can be found in the file
  16 install.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
  17 many systems:
  18
  19 ./configure --with-x11 --disable-shared --with-x11 --with-debug_flag --enable-log --with-debug_info --enable-debug --without-threads --without-sockets -without-odbc -with-libjpeg --enable-debug_cntxt --disable-no_rtti"
  20
  21 make
  22 su <type root password>
  23 make install
  24 ldconfig
  25 exit
  26
  27 When you run into problems, please read the install.txt and
  28 follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
  29 please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see
  30 the wxWindows homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND
  31 YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF MOTIF, WXMOTIF, WHAT
  32 DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED.
  33 Alternatively, you may also use the bug reporting system
  34 linked from the wxWindows web page.
  35
  36 The library produced by the install process will be called
  37 libwx_x11univ[d].a (static) and libwx_x11univ[d]-2.3.so.0.0.0
  38 (shared) so that once a binary incompatible version of
  39 wxWindows/X11 comes out we'll augment the library version number
  40 to avoid linking problems.
  41
  42 Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
  43 bug reports or comments to the wxWindows users list. Information
  44 on how to subscribe is available from www.wxwindows.org.
  45
  46 wxWindows/X11 doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might
  47 crash your hard disk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be
  48 suitable for any special or general purpose.
