-wxControl dimensions should be optionally based on dialog font
-size for portability (dialog units as per Windows).
+Add centring, right justify styles to wxStaticText.

 
 

-Implement wxDC floating point transformations.
+Extend wxSystemSettings to get symbols for current nationality,
+e.g. ',' instead of '.' for decimal points.

 
 

-Add wxDC::DeviceToLogical -> wxPoint etc (convenience accessors).
+Supply correct ctl3d/odbc lib files for BC++, Watcom (corrupt?)
