+Notice that all wxWidgets samples mentioned above can be found in @c samples
+subdirectory of the library distribution. When a @c foobar sample is mentioned
+below, its sources can be found in @c samples/foobar directory of your
+wxWidgets tree. If you installed wxWidgets from a binary package, you might not
+have this directory. In this case, you may view the samples online at
+http://svn.wxwidgets.org/viewvc/wx/wxWidgets/trunk/samples/ but you need to
+download the source distribution in order to be able to build them (highly
+recommended).

 
 

-The minimal sample is what most people will know under the term Hello World,
-i.e. a minimal program that doesn't demonstrate anything apart from what is
-needed to write a program that will display a "hello" dialog. This is usually
-a good starting point for learning how to use wxWidgets.
+Final advice is to do a search in the entire samples directory if you can't
+find the sample showing the control you are interested in by name. Most classes
+contained in wxWidgets occur in at least one of the samples.
