2 Welcome to wxWindows/Motif 2.1 snapshot 7,
3
4 you have downloaded version 2.1 of the Motif port of
5 the wxWindows GUI library. This is a developers release
6 and is it not suited for production development. Beware
7 that major changes can happen before a final release.

19 Information on how to install can be found in the file
20 INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
21 many systems:
22
23 ./configure --with-motif
24 make
25 su <type root password>
26 make install
27 ldconfig
28 exit
29
30 When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and
31 follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
32 please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see
33 my homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND
34 YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT
35 DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. I know
36 this has no effect, but I tried...
37
38 The library produced by the install process will be called
39 libwx_motif.a (static) and libwx_motif-2.1.so.0.0.0 (shared) so that
40 once a binary incompatible version of wxWindows/Motif comes out
41 we'll augment the library version number to avoid linking problems.
42
43 Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
44 bug reports or comments to the wxWindows users list. Information
45 on how to subscribe is available from my homepage.

47 wxWindows/Motif doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might
48 crash your harddisk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be
49 suitable for any special or general purpose.
