+Installing and compiling wxMac
+============================================================
+
+On MacOS X, you can download Apple's free developer tools (gcc
+and associated headers and libraries, such as the Carbon API).
+You can then use configure in a similar way to compiling
+wxWindows on Linux, (or on Windows using MinGW or Cygwin). See
+'Apple Developers Tools' below for more details on using
+configure.
+
+To target on MacOS 8 or 9, you need to buy Metrowerks
+CodeWarrior. You can then compile Mac Classic or MacOS X
+applications on Mac OS X, or compile Mac Classic or MacOS X
+applications on Mac Classic. However you can only run and debug
+each type of application on the target operating system.

Installing latest headers (and Carbon Support)
----------------------------------------------
-NOTE : these steps are not necessary for Pro 6, only for Pro 5.3

-to successfully compile the code (also necessary if you don't want to build the carbon targets)

-2. you have to download the 3.3.2 universal interfaces from
- ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/UniversalInterfaces3.3.2.sit.hqx
-3. put the Interfaces and Libraries Folder into the MacOS Support folder and replace older versions
-4. remove from the MacOS Support folder the separate OpenTransport folder

setup.h

-in order to build wxMac with CodeWarrior, you must copy or alias the file include/wx/mac/setup0.h
-to include/wx/setup.h.

OpenGL
------
-In order to build opengl support with CodeWarrior, you must install the opengl libraries and headers

-If you don't want OpenGl support, remove the file "glcanvas.cpp" from the project before

+If you don't want OpenGl support, set wxUSE_OPENGL to 0 (the
+default) and remove the file OpenGLLibraryStub from the project
+before compilation.
-If you want OpenGL support with the Apple Developer Tools under Mac OS X, add --with-opengl to the
-arguments of configure when configuring wxMac.

Project Files
-------------
-There are always the makemac.mcp or *M5.mcp files for Pro 5.3 and the makemac6.mcp files for Pro 6
+The project files are stored as xml text files and converted to binary
+CodeWarrior projects in the distribution (see AppleScript Files below):
+ - *M5.xml -> *M5.mcp for CodeWarrior 5.3
+ - *M6.xml -> *M6.mcp for CodeWarrior 6
+ - *M7.xml -> *M7.mcp for CodeWarrior 7 and above.
In order to build the library (and then the samples) you need to make the
-following projects (for 5.3)
-:src:wxWindowsM5.mcp
-:src:png:makemac.mcp
-:src:tif:makemac.mcp
-:src:jpeg:makemac.mcp
-:src:zlib:makemac.mcp
+following projects (for CW 5.3, similar process for CW 7):
+
+:src:wxwindowsM5.mcp
+:src:png:pngM5.mcp
+:src:tiff:tiffM5.mcp
+:src:jpeg:jpegM5.mcp
+:src:zlib:zlibM5.mcp
+
+Note that if using CW 8 and above, when compiling the samples
+you may need to edit the target settings, click on Language
+Settings, C/++ Language and remove the forward slash at the
+start of /wx/wx_cw_d.h (or similar filename).
+
+AppleScript Files
+-----------------
+
+Several AppleScript files are provided in the docs:mac directory (currently
+only for CodeWarrior 5.3 related projects):
+ - M5xml2mcp.applescript to convert xml files to CodeWarrior projects
+ - M5mcp2xml.applescript to convert CodeWarrior projects to xml files
+ - M5build.applescript to automatically build all samples/demos projects
