\membersection{wxCHECK\_GCC\_VERSION}\label{wxcheckgccversion}
-\func{bool}{wxCHECK\_GCC\_VERSION}{\param{}{major, minor, release}}
+\func{bool}{wxCHECK\_GCC\_VERSION}{\param{}{major, minor}}
Returns $1$ if the compiler being used to compile the code is GNU C++
-compiler (g++) version major.minor.release or greater. Otherwise, and also if
+compiler (g++) version major.minor or greater. Otherwise, and also if
the compiler is not GNU C++ at all, returns $0$.

-\func{bool}{wxCHECK\_GCC\_VERSION}{\param{}{major, minor, release}}

greater. Otherwise, and also if we are not compiling with mingw32/cygwin under
Notice that parameters \arg{argc} and \arg{argv} may be modified by this
function.

kill this process as well as all of its children (except those which have
started their own session).
+The {\tt wxEXEC\_NOEVENTS} flag prevents processing of any events from taking
+place while the child process is running. It should be only used for very
+short-lived processes as otherwise the application windows risk becoming
+unresponsive from the users point of view. As this flag only makes sense with
+{\tt wxEXEC\_SYNC}, {\tt wxEXEC\_BLOCK} equal to the sum of both of these flags
+is provided as a convenience.

+Concatenate all lines of the given \helpref{wxArrayString}{wxarraystring} object using the separator \arg{sep} and returns
+the result as a \helpref{wxString}{wxstring}.
+
+If the \arg{escape} character is non-\NULL, then it's used as prefix for each occurrence of \arg{sep}
+in the strings contained in \arg{arr} before joining them which is necessary

\func{int}{wxKill}{\param{long}{ pid}, \param{int}{ sig = wxSIGTERM}, \param{wxKillError }{*rc = NULL}, \param{int }{flags = 0}}
Returns time of last modification of given file.
-The return value is $0$ if an error occured (e.g. file not found).
+The function returns \texttt{(time\_t)}$-1$ if an error occurred (e.g. file not
+found).

-This function is implemented for Win32,
-Mac OS and generic Unix provided the system has {\tt statfs()} function.

+the \texttt{statfs()} or \texttt{statvfs()} function.
This function first appeared in wxWidgets 2.3.2.
\membersection{::wxDirExists}\label{functionwxdirexists}
-\func{bool}{wxDirExists}{\param{const wxChar *}{dirname}}
+\func{bool}{wxDirExists}{\param{const wxString\& }{dirname}}
Returns true if \arg{dirname} exists and is a directory.
\func{bool}{wxCopyFile}{\param{const wxString\& }{file1}, \param{const wxString\& }{file2}, \param{bool }{overwrite = true}}
Copies {\it file1} to {\it file2}, returning true if successful. If

-if it exists, but if {\it overwrite} is false, the functions fails in this
+{\it overwrite} parameter is \true (default), the destination file is overwritten
+if it exists, but if {\it overwrite} is \false, the functions fails in this
case.
+This function supports resources forks under Mac OS.

\membersection{::wxGetCwd}\label{wxgetcwd}
The {\it flags} parameter is reserved for future use.
+Please notice that there is also a wxRmDir() function which simply wraps the
+standard POSIX rmdir() function and so return an integer error code instead of
+a boolean value (but otherwise is currently identical to wxRmdir), don't
+confuse these two functions.
+
\membersection{::wxSetWorkingDirectory}\label{wxsetworkingdirectory}
Under MS Windows, the current drive is also changed if {\it dir} contains a drive specification.
+\membersection{::wxSplit}\label{wxsplit}
+
+\func{wxArrayString}{wxSplit}{\param{const wxString\&}{ str}, \param{const wxChar}{ sep}, \param{const wxChar}{ escape = '\\'}}
+
+Splits the given \helpref{wxString}{wxstring} object using the separator \arg{sep} and returns the
+result as a \helpref{wxArrayString}{wxarraystring}.
+
+If the \arg{escape} character is non-\NULL, then the occurrences of \arg{sep} immediately prefixed
+with \arg{escape} are not considered as separators.
+
+Note that empty tokens will be generated if there are two or more adjacent separators.

This macro is identical to \helpref{\_()}{underscore} but for the plural variant
of \helpref{wxGetTranslation}{wxgettranslation}.
If path is empty, the current directory will be used. If filename is empty,
no default filename will be supplied. The wildcard determines what files
are displayed in the file selector, and file extension supplies a type

+wxFD\_SAVE, wxFD\_OVERWRITE\_PROMPT or wxFD\_FILE\_MUST\_EXIST. Note that wxFD\_MULTIPLE
can only be used with \helpref{wxFileDialog}{wxfiledialog} and not here as this
function only returns a single file name.

-Pops up a dialog box containing a message, OK/Cancel buttons and a multiple-selection
-listbox. The user may choose one or more item(s) and press OK or Cancel.
-
-The number of initially selected choices, and array of the selected indices,
-are passed in; this array will contain the user selections on exit, with
-the function returning the number of selections. {\it selection} must be
-as big as the number of choices, in case all are selected.
-
-If Cancel is pressed, -1 is returned.
-
-{\it choices} is an array of {\it n} strings for the listbox.
-
-If {\it centre} is true, the message text (which may include new line characters)
-is centred; if false, the message is left-justified.

-Gets a resource value from the resource database (for example, WIN.INI, or
-.Xdefaults). If {\it file} is NULL, WIN.INI or .Xdefaults is used,
-otherwise the specified file is used.
-
-Under X, if an application class (wxApp::GetClassName) has been defined,
-it is appended to the string /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/ to try to find
-an applications default file when merging all resource databases.
-
-The reason for passing the result in an argument is that it
-can be convenient to define a default value, which gets overridden
-if the value exists in the resource file. It saves a separate
-test for that resource's existence, and it also allows
-the overloading of the function for different types.
