If you have tested wxWindows on a platform not mentioned here, please tell us about your experience on our mailing list! We would especially like to have information about compiling wxGTK on other Unix variants, such as IRIX, DG-UX, other flavours of BSD, ... Please note that you will generally need GNU make (also known as gmake) to compile wxWindows, native make programs -often don't work. +often don't work.
