Welcome to wxWindows/Motif 2.1 snapshot 7, you have downloaded version 2.1 of the Motif port of the wxWindows GUI library. This is a developers release and is it not suited for production development. Beware that major changes can happen before a final release. More information is available from my homepage at: http://wesley.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~wxxt and about the wxWindows project as a whole (and the Windows and Motif ports in particular) can be found at Julian Smart's homepage at: http://web.ukonline.co.uk/julian.smart/wxwin Information on how to install can be found in the file INSTALL.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on many systems: ./configure --with-motif make su make install ldconfig exit When you run into problems, please read the INSTALL.txt and follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success, please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see my homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF GTK, WXGTK, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. I know this has no effect, but I tried... The library produced by the install process will be called libwx_motif.a (static) and libwx_motif-2.1.so.0.0.0 (shared) so that once a binary incompatible version of wxWindows/Motif comes out we'll augment the library version number to avoid linking problems. Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests, bug reports or comments to the wxWindows users list. Information on how to subscribe is available from my homepage. wxWindows/Motif doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might crash your harddisk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be suitable for any special or general purpose. Regards, Robert Roebling
