Welcome to the wonderful world of wxPython!
-Now that you have installed the Win32 extension module, you can try it
+Once you have installed the wxPython extension module, you can try it
out by going to the [install dir]\wxPython\demo directory and typing:
python demo.py
as most classes and methods are used identically. Where there are
differences they are documented with a "wxPython Note."
+On Win32 systems the binary self-installer creates a program group on
+the Start Menu that contains a link to running the demo and a link to
+the help file. To help you save disk space I'm now using Microsoft's
+HTML Help format. If your system doesn't know what to do with the help
+file, you can install the HTML Help Viewer as part of IE 4+, NT
+Service Pack 4+, or the HTML Workshop at

+What's new in 2.1b2
+--------------------
+
+Added the missing wxWindow.GetUpdateRegion() method.
+
+Made a new change in SWIG (update your patches everybody) that
+provides a fix for global shadow objects that get an exception in
+their __del__ when their extension module has already been deleted.
+It was only a 1 line change in .../SWIG/Modules/pycpp.cxx at about
+line 496 if you want to do it by hand.
+
+It is now possible to run through MainLoop more than once in any one
+process. The cleanup that used to happen as MainLoop completed (and
+prevented it from running again) has been delayed until the wxc module
+is being unloaded by Python.
+
+I fixed a bunch of stuff in the C++ version of wxGrid so it wouldn't
+make wxPython look bad.
+
+wxWindow.PopupMenu() now takes a wxPoint instead of x,y. Added
+wxWindow.PopupMenuXY to be consistent with some other methods.
+
+Added wxGrid.SetEditInPlace and wxGrid.GetEditInPlace.
+
+You can now provide your own app.MainLoop method. See
+wxPython/demo/demoMainLoop.py for an example and some explaination.
+
+Got the in-place-edit for the wxTreeCtrl fixed and added some demo
+code to show how to use it.
+
+Put the wxIcon constructor back in for GTK as it now has one that
+matches MSW's.
+
+Added wxGrid.GetCells
+
+Added wxSystemSettings static methods as functions with names like
+wxSystemSettings_GetSystemColour.
+
+Removed wxPyMenu since using menu callbacks have been depreciated in
+wxWindows. Use wxMenu and events instead.
+
+Added alternate wxBitmap constructor (for MSW only) as
+ wxBitmapFromData(data, type, width, height, depth = 1)
+
+Added a helper function named wxPyTypeCast that can convert shadow
+objects of one type into shadow objects of another type. (Like doing
+a down-cast.) See the implementation in wx.py for some docs.
+
+Fixed wxImage GetData and SetData to properly use String objects for
+data transfer.
+
+Added access methods to wxGridEvent.
+
+New Makefile/Setup files supporting multiple dynamic extension modules
+for unix systems.
+
+Fixes for the wxGLCanvas demo to work around a strange bug in gtk.
+
+SWIG support routines now compiled separately instead of being bundled
+in wx.cpp.
+
+
+
+
+What's new in 2.1b1
+--------------------
+Fixed wxComboBox.SetSelection so that it actually sets the selected
+item. (Actually just removed it from wxPython and let it default to
+wxChoice.SetSelection which was already doing the right thing.)
+
+Added the Printing Framework.
+
+Switched back to using the wxWindows DLL for the pre-built Win32
+version. The problem was needing to reinitialize static class info
+data after loading each extension module.
+
+Lots of little tweaks and additions to reflect changes to various
+wxWindows classes.
+
+Fixed a bug with attaching objects to tree items. Actually was a
+symptom of a larger problem with not obtaining the interpreter lock
+when doing any Py_DECREFs.
+
+wxSizer and friends. Sizers are layout tools that manage a colection
+of windows and sizers. Different types of sizers apply different
+types of layout algorithms. You saw it here first! These classes are
+not even in the wxWindows C++ library yet!
+
+
What's new in 2.0b9
-------------------
DSM (Dumb Stupid Mistake) on my part but it was nasty none the less
because the behavior was so different on different platforms.
-
The dynamicly loaded module on Solaris is still segfaulting, so it
must have been a different issue all along...
3. Varioius bug fixes, enhancements, etc.
+----------------------------------------------------------------------

0. I configure wxWindows like this, YMMV:
-./configure --with-gtk --without-shared --with-threads --without-unicode --with-libjpeg
-
+./configure --with-gtk --disable-shared --enable-threads --disable-unicode
1. Change into the $(WXWIN)/utils/wxPython/src directory.
