+ http://www.scitechsoft.com/products/embedded/mgl_home.html
+
+ Install MGL according to provided instructions. In particular, make sure that
MGL_ROOT and NUCLEUS_PATH environment variables are set before attempting to
build wxMGL.
+ Make sure you installed all MGL components, including the "fonts" package
+ (it's called mgl50b7-font.tar.gz in Linux version). It is important to have
+ SciTech's basic fonts in $(MGL_ROOT)/fonts directory (you may want to add
+ Arial TrueType font for better output quality) and basic cursors in
+ $(MGL_ROOT)/cursors. wxMGL depends on their presence.
