-COMPILING USING MAKEFILES
-=========================
-
-- Copy the file include/wx/motif/setup0.h to include/wx/motif/setup.h and
-  edit it if you wish to enable/disable some library features
-
-- Choose a .env file from src/makeenvs that matches your
-  environment, and copy it to src/make.env. These are the
-  settings read by wxWindows for Motif makefiles.
-
-- Edit src/make.env to change options according to your local
-  environment. In particular, change WXDIR to where wxWindows is
-  found on your system, or set the WXWIN environment variable
-  before compilation, e.g.:
-
-    export WXWIN=/home/jacs/wx2
-
-  Please feel free to contribute settings files for your environment.
-
-- Change directory to src/motif and type:
-
-    make -f makefile.unx motif
-
-  This should make the library libwx_motif.a in the lib
-  directory. Note that this makefile system does not build shared
-  libraries, only static ones (that is, the wxWindows library will be
-  linked statically; to see remaining dependencies on shared libraries,
-  type e.g. ldd minimal_motif).
-
-- Make a sample, such as the minimal sample:
-
-    cd samples/minimal
-    make -f makefile.unx motif
-
-  and run the resulting minimal_motif binary.
-

 Troubleshooting
 ---------------
 

-- If you have trouble compiling the file y_tab.c, or have strange
-  linking errors, check whether you're using a C or C++ compiler for this file.
-  You should specify a C compiler in the CCLEX variable in src/make.env.
-  You could also try using bison and flex instead of yacc and
-  lex.
-

 - Solaris compilation with gcc: if the compiler has problems with the variable argument
   functions, try putting the gcc fixinclude file paths early in the include
   path.

-  include <xpm.h> instead of <X11/xpm.h>
-
-  Alternatively, edit include/wx/motif/setup.h, set wxUSE_XPM
