+
+7st November '99: wxWindows 2.1.11 released

+where color values get exchanged. I'd need help on this
+one as I have no BE computer.
Enlightment has struck the majority of the developers and
-they have chosen ti use the Linux kernel numbering scheme
+they have chosen to use the Linux kernel numbering scheme
for wxWindows from now on. This means that the next stable
release will be called wxWindows 2.2.X, development snapshots
will be called 2.1.X.
A lot of discussion has been wasted on how to maintain a
-once released stable version will be maintained. It was
-almost universally agreed that only a commercial entity
-will have the motivation ($$$) to do that - so far there
-is no wxWindows Inc.

+($$$) to do that - so far there is no wxWindows Inc.
-Support for GTK 1.0 has been dropped.
+Support for GTK 1.0 has been dropped. This version has
+been tested with GTK 1.2.3 and GTK 1.2.6 - it might
+not work with some other versions.
+
+Rewritten the support for multiple-format Drag'n'Drop and
+clipboard under both GTK and MSW. There are probably some
+problems here and there left.
+
+wxListBox and wxChoice can now handle only either void
+client data (which it will not delete on destruction) or
+client data of the wxClientData type (which it will delete),
+instead of both at the same time. The same will happen
+to wxComboBox some time. Also, wxListBox can now sort its
+items.
Many build fixes for various platforms have been applied,
-try again, poor HP-UX and *BSD users, but don't reckon
-with immediate success.
+try again, poor AIX, HP-UX and *BSD users, but don't reckon

+your chances are quite good.
-My total rewrite of the wxWindows underlying GTK widget
+My rewrite of the wxWindows underlying GTK widget
has turned scrolling including subwindows from barely
-functional to pretty and fast.
+functional to pretty and fast. I also added scrolling
+of foreign windows to wxScrolledWindow.
+
+Setting size hints for the window manager might work now.
wxSocket and Co. have been improved up to the point of
calling it a rewrite. It works on wxMSW now too and
I have reawakened the iODBC code from wxGTK 2.0 so you
can now use wxODBC from wxMSW and wxGTK.
-Several printing things fixed.
+Several printing things fixed. More work needs to be done

-HTML widget and its wxWindows' help system based upon
+HTML widget and the wxWindows' help system based upon
it have been reorganized and improved for easier use
-from Python and C++.
+from Python and C++. Also HTML printing has been added.
wxSpinCtrl added. Like a wxSpinButton and a wxTextCtrl.
for scrolling (like page up, line up etc) instead of just
"thumb-track" as before.
-Corrected bug in Reparent() code.
+Corrected Reparent() code, including the special case for
+wxToolBar (as the toolbar sits in a different window than
+normal windows).
+
+Corrected key accelerator code for toplevel child windows
+and added support for more key combinations - pretty much
+all, actually.
+
+Corrected cursor handling in a number of special cases.
+
+wxGLCanvas now waits until all expose events have been sent
+and then emits its own redraw event. Also removed flicker
+for wxGLCanvas and in some other places.
A handler to read PCX file (in most variants) has been added.
A number of problems with compressed and socket streams have
been solved.
+Changed behavour of wxTextStream to make use of deliminators
+and default to space as the standard C++ stream do.
+
+Changes to tab traversal code to better reflect MSW code.
+
+Corrected problems with wxGenericValidator and certain controls.
+
+Made default button action work in more cases.
