+\fIwx\-config\fP accepts the following options with no restrictions on
+their order as was required in previous releases:
+
+.SS Installed root
+These options change or query the filesystem root for the operations
+listed below.
+
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-prefix[=PREFIX]
+Without the optional argument, the current default prefix will be
+output. If the argument is supplied, PREFIX will be searched for
+matching configs in place of the default. You may use both forms
+in the same command.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-exec\-prefix[=EXEC-PREFIX]
+Similar to \-\-prefix, but acts on the exec-prefix. If not specified
+will default to the value of prefix.
+
+.SS Query options
+These options return information about the wxWidgets default version
+and and installed alternatives.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-list
+List all configs in prefix and show those that match any additional
+feature options given.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-release
+Output the wxWidgets release number.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-version\-full
+Output the wxWidgets version number in all its glory.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-basename
+Output the base name of the wxWidgets libraries.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-selected-config
+Output the signature of the selected wxWidgets library.
+This is a string of the form "port-unicode-release-version".
+
+
+.SS Feature options
+These options select features which determine which wxWidgets
+configuration to use.
+
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-host=HOST
+Specify a (posix extended) regex of host aliases to match for cross
+compiled configurations. eg. \-\-host=i586-mingw32msvc, \-\-host=.*
+If unspecified, the default is to match only configurations native to
+the build machine.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-toolkit=TOOLKIT
+Specify a (posix extended) regex of the toolkits to match.
+The toolkit is responsible for look and feel of the compiled
+application. eg. gtk, gtk2, motif, msw.
+If unspecified the default is to prefer the system default toolkit,
+but to match any toolkit in the absence of a stricter specification.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-version[=VERSION]
+Without the optional argument, return the wxWidgets version. If the
+argument is supplied it specifies a (posix extended) regex of the
+versions to match. If unspecified the default is to prefer the system
+default version, but to match any version in the absence of a stricter
+specification.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-unicode[=yes|no]]
+Specify the default character type for the application.
+If unspecified, the system default will be preferred, but any type may
+match in the absence of a stricter specification.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-debug[=yes|no]]
+Specify whether to create a debug or release build for the application.
+If unspecified, the system default (release) will be preferred, but any
+type may match in the absence of a stricter specification.
+Debug builds should never be uploaded to Debian, but are very useful
+for finding certain common failure idioms. You are encouraged to use
+them during active development of applications. They are not binary
+compatible with the release libraries.
+.TP 15
+.B \-\-static[=yes|no]]
+Specify whether to statically or dynamically link wxWidgets libraries
+into your application. If unspecified, the system default (dynamic)
+will be preferred, but any type may match in the absence of a stricter
+specification. Static linking is mainly useful still for cross ports
+not natively supported by Debian, and can be hazardous in conjunction
+with the gtk toolkits. Note that static libraries are no longer supplied
+in the wxGTK packages any more.
+
+.SS Compiler options
+These options generate output required to build an application using
+a particular wxWidgets configuration.
