The +intention is to have it run on NanoX as well as desktop X11. + +More information about the wxWidgets project as a whole +can be found at: + + http://www.wxwidgets.org + +Information on how to install can be found in the file +install.txt, but if you cannot wait, this should work on +many systems: + +./configure --with-x11 --disable-shared --enable-log --enable-debug -without-odbc --enable-debug_cntxt + +make +su +make install +ldconfig +exit + +When you run into problems, please read the install.txt and +follow those instructions. If you still don't have any success, +please send a bug report to one of our mailing lists (see +the wxWidgets homepage) INCLUDING A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR SYSTEM AND +YOUR PROBLEM, SUCH AS YOUR VERSION OF X, WHAT DISTRIBUTION YOU USE +AND WHAT ERROR WAS REPORTED. Alternatively, you may also use the bug +reporting system linked from the wxWidgets web page. + +The library produced by the install process will be called +libwx_x11univ[d].a (static) and libwx_x11univ[d]-2.3.so.0.0.0 +(shared) so that once a binary incompatible version of +wxWidgets/X11 comes out we'll augment the library version number +to avoid linking problems. + +Please send problems concerning installation, feature requests, +bug reports or comments to the wxWidgets users list.
