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

   9 More information about the wxWidgets project as a whole
  10 can be found at:
  11
  12   http://www.wxwidgets.org
  13
  14 Information on how to install can be found in the file
  15 install.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
  16 many systems:
  17
  18 ./configure --with-x11 --disable-shared --enable-log --enable-debug -without-odbc --enable-debug_cntxt
  19
  20 make
  21 su <type root password>
  22 make install
  23 ldconfig
  24 exit
  25
  26 When you run into problems, please read the install.txt and
  27 follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
  28 please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see
  29 the wxWidgets homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND
  30 YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF X, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE
  31 AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. Alternatively, you may also use the bug
  32 reporting system linked from the wxWidgets web page.
  33
  34 The library produced by the install process will be called
  35 libwx_x11univ[d].a (static) and libwx_x11univ[d]-2.3.so.0.0.0
  36 (shared) so that once a binary incompatible version of
  37 wxWidgets/X11 comes out we'll augment the library version number
  38 to avoid linking problems.
  39
  40 Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
  41 bug reports or comments to the wxWidgets users list. Information
  42 on how to subscribe is available from www.wxwidgets.org.

  44 wxWidgets/X11 doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might
  45 crash your hard disk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be
  46 suitable for any special or general purpose.

  55 - some refresh efficiency issues
  56 - clipboard implementation missing
  57 - drag and drop implementation missing
  58 - wxX11's wxTextCtrl (separate from wxUniv version)
  59   needs some work, for example to remove vertical scrollbar,
  60   and to provide wordwrap
  61 - wxToggleButton implementation missing
  62 - wxSpinCtrl implementation missing
  63 - tooltips implementation missing
  64 - code common to the Motif and X11 ports needs to be merged
