2 Welcome to wxWindows/Gtk 2.3
3
4 you have downloaded version 2.3 of the GTK port of the
5 wxWindows GUI library.
6
7 wxWindows no longer supports GTK 1.0 (as did some early
8 snapshots) so that you will need GTK 1.2 when using it.
9 GTK 1.2.6 or above is recommended although some programs
10 will work with GTK 1.2.3 onwards. There is now beta support
11 for GTK 2.0.
12
13 More info about the wxWindows project (and the Windows
14 and Motif ports in particular) can be found at Julian's
15 homepage at:

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-gtk
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 list, INCLUDING
33 A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR
34 VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR
35 WAS REPORTED. I know this has no effect, but I tried...
36
37 The library produced by the install process will be called
38 libwx_gtk.a (static) and libwx_gtk-2.2.so.0.0.0 (shared) so
39 that once a binary incompatible version of wxWindows/Gtk comes
40 out we'll augment the library version number to avoid linking
41 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.
46
47 Do NOT send any comments directly to me.

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