   2   Welcome to wxWindows/Gtk 2.1 snapshot 4,
   3
   4 you have downloaded version 2.1 of the GTK+ 1.2 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 -
   8 Particularly the makefile system will change entirly.

  20 Information on how to install can be found in the file
  21 INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on
  22 many systems (when using GTK 1.0 read the INSTALL.txt):
  23
  24 ./configure
  25 make
  26 su <type root password>
  27 ldconfig
  28 make install
  29 exit
  30
  31 Type the following to make the samples
  32
  33 make samples
  34
  35 To start the samples, change into the directory that
  36 corresponds to the sample and your system, e.g on a
  37 linux-gnu machine the minimal sample would get started
  38 from the wxWindows base dir with
  39
  40 ./samples/minimal/linux-gnu/minimal
  41
  42 When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and
  43 follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success,
  44 please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see
  45 my homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND
  46 YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT
  47 DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. I know
  48 this has no effect, but I tried...
  49
  50 The library produced by the install process will be called
  51 libwx_gtk2.a (static) and libwx_gtk2.so.1.0 (shared) so that
  52 once a binary incompatible version of wxWindows/Gtk comes out
  53 we'll augment library version number to avoid linking problems.
  54
  55 Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests,
  56 bug reports or comments to the wxWindows users Information on
  57 how to subscribe is available from my homepage.

  59 wxWindows/Gtk doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might
  60 crash your harddisk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be
  61 suitable for any special purpose.
