+
+  Welcome to wxWidgets/X11
+
+You have downloaded the X11 port of the wxWidgets GUI library.
+This runs on X11 with no Motif, Xt, GTK+ or any other standard
+widget set -- instead it uses the wxUniversal widgets. 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 <type root password>
+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. Information 
+on how to subscribe is available from www.wxwidgets.org.
+
+wxWidgets/X11 doesn't come with any guarantee whatsoever. It might 
+crash your hard disk or destroy your monitor. It doesn't claim to be
+suitable for any special or general purpose.
+
+Status
+======
+
+Many of the samples are running.
+
+Some remaining issues:
+
+- some refresh efficiency issues
+- clipboard implementation missing
+- drag and drop implementation missing
+- wxX11's wxTextCtrl (separate from wxUniv version)
+  needs some work, for example to remove vertical scrollbar,
+  and to provide wordwrap
+- wxToggleButton implementation missing
+- wxSpinCtrl implementation missing
+- tooltips implementation missing
+- code common to the Motif and X11 ports needs to be merged
+- need thread safety in event loop

+  Regards,
+
+  The wxWidgets team
