 \section{wxGTK port}\label{wxgtkport}
 
-wxGTK is a port of wxWindows using the GTK+ library available
-from www.gtk.org. It makes use of GTK+'s native widgets wherever
-possible and uses wxWindows' generic controls when needed. GTK+
-itself has been ported to a number of systems, but so far only the
-original X11 version is supported. Support for the recently released
-GTK+ 2.0 including Unicode support is still under construction.
+wxGTK is a port of wxWidgets using the GTK+ library.
+It makes use of GTK+'s native widgets wherever possible and uses

+such as the new DirectFB backend.
 
-You will need GTK+ 1.2.3 or higher which is available from:
+All work is being done on GTK+ version 2.0 and above. Support for
+GTK+ 1.2 will be deprecated in a later release.

-In order to configure wxWindows to compile wxGTK you will 
-need to type:
+The newer version of GTK+ you use, the more native widgets and
+features will be utilized. We have gone to a great extent to
+allow compiling wxWidgets applications with a latest version of
+GTK+, with the resulting binary working on systems even with a
+much lower version of GTK+. You will have to ensure that the
+application is launched with lazy symbol binding for that.
+
+In order to configure wxWidgets to compile wxGTK you will 
+need use the {\tt --with-gtk} argument to the {\tt configure} script.
+This is the default for many systems.
 
-\begin{verbatim}
-  configure --with-gtk
-\end{verbatim}
+GTK+ 1.2 can still be used, albeit discouraged. For that you can
+pass {\tt --with-gtk=1} to the {\tt configure} script.
