+ =============
+
+NB: wxPalm is currently in pre-alpha stage -- but it's already fun!
+
+I. Building wxPalm under Windows
+--------------------------------
+
+First, you need the freely distributable Palm OS Developer Studio available at
+
+ http://www.palmos.com/dev/tools/dev_suite.html
+
+Beware, its installation takes about 500Mb (+ 150 Mb of cygwin if not installed
+yet), so make sure you have enough disk space for it and for wxWidgets build
+tree (another 50Mb). Last tested set: PODS 1.2, SDK 6.1, wxWidgets 2.7.0.
+
+The Developer Studio is Eclipse-based and so is a GUI environment, however it
+is also possible to build Palm applications from the command line using the
+usual GNU tools. Both methods are covered below, choose one which you prefer.
+
+a) Using command line tools:
+ - If you have installed Developer Studio in a non default location (e.g.
+ d:\PalmOS), you will need to set the environment variables:
+
+ set TOOLS_DIR=D:/PalmOS/PalmOSTools/
+ set SDK_LOCATION=D:/PalmOS/sdk-6/
+
+ Don't use backslashes and don't forget the trailing slash. On the bright
+ side, spaces don't need to be escaped in any way.
+
+ - create a lib/gcc_lib/palmos/wx directory
+ - copy include/wx/palmos/setup0.h to lib/gcc_lib/palmos/wx/setup.h
+ TODO: modify Makefile to do it automatically
+
+ - ensure that the directories d:\PalmOS\PalmOSTools and the one containing
+ GNU tools (i.e. cygwin bin directory) are in your PATH
+
+ - go to build/palmos and run make
+
+ - you should end up with DebugSim/wxWidgets.prc: this is the Palm database
+ which you can load into the emulator
+
+ - to test it, run the emulator (you need PalmOS 6 one!) after seting
+ another env var:
+
+ set PALMSOURCE_SIM_PATH=wxWindows\build\palmos\DebugSim
+
+ wait until the emulator finishes to boot, right click it and choose
+ "Install" in the menu, select wxWindows.prc in the file open dialog.
+ You should see "Minimal App" with a familiar icon appear in the list,
+ click it and it should start.
+
+
+b) Using IDE:
+ TODO: write this after checking that the instructions below work
