 wxGTK uses GNU configure. If you have problems with your make use GNU
 make instead.
 
+* Additional libraries
+-----------------------
+
+wxGTK requires the GTK (The Gimp Toolkit) to be installed,
+which probably makes sense.
+
+There will be a few more features of wxGTK, which will 
+require further libraries (on some platforms). These
+features will be optional. I hope to teach configure
+to check that out automatically.
+
+Thread support:
+
+  Requires pthreads under Linux with glibc 2. pthreads are
+  always present on such systems, so just compile.
+  
+  Requires pcthreads under Linux with libc 5. If you
+  haven't installed pcthreads, there will be no thread
+  support in wxGTK, but the library will compile.
+  
+Python scripting language support:
+
+  Requires Python. Soon to come.
+  
+* Other things to do
+-----------------------------
+
+Copy the two files from ~/wxGTK/misc/imlib to your
+home directory. You may also edit imrc by hand as
+you like. The palette file is required when using
+wxGTK in 256-colour mode.
+
+If you want to use wxGTK's ODBC support, you'll have
+to create a .odbc.ini file. The readme file in 
+~/wxGTK/src/iodbc tells you what to do.
+
+
 * Create your configuration
 -----------------------------
+
+This must be done in ~/wxGTK/install/gtk
