+   Welcome to wxWindows/Gtk 2.2

 
 

-you have downloaded version 2.1 of the GTK+ 1.2 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.
+you have downloaded version 2.2 of the GTK port of the 
+wxWindows GUI library.

 
 

-Beginning from snapshot 6 wxWindows uses a completely
-new make file system on Unix that uses GNU automake,
-GNU autoconf and GNU autoheader. You do not need these
-programs in order to use the library, but for taking
-part in its development, they are required.
+wxWindows no longer supports GTK 1.0 (as did some early
+snapshots) so that you will need GTK 1.2 when using it.
+GTK 1.2.6 or above is recommended although some programs 
+will work with GTK 1.2.3 onwards.
