Normally, you won't have to choose a toolkit, because when
you download wxGTK, it will default to --with-gtk etc. But
if you use all of our CVS repository you have to choose a
toolkit. You must do this by running configure with either of:
- --with-gtk Use the GIMP ToolKit (GTK)
+ --without-gtk Don't use the GIMP ToolKit (GTK)
--with-motif Use either Motif or Lesstif
Configure will look for both.

When producing an executable that is linked statically with wxGTK
you'll be surprised at its immense size. This can sometimes be
--without-libjpeg Disables JPEG image format code.
- --without-odbc Disables ODBC code.
+{ --without-odbc Disables ODBC code. Not yet. }
- --disable-wxresources Disables the use of *.wxr type
+ --disable-resources Disables the use of *.wxr type

Apart from disabling certain features you can very often "strip"
the program of its debugging information resulting in a significant
reduction in size.
