I need this for testing purposes, i.e. this +person could help me by running a small testprogram and sending +me the output. + +Improved support for GTK's themes, changes in font sizes (and +the dialogs' ability to react to that) and related things. + +Added Calendar control. + +Added classes for recoding text (e.g. from Windows encoding to ISO encoding +and for converting to and from Unicode). + +Updated the 64-bit long class (a class that substitutes a 64-bit int +type on platforms which don't provide a native one). + +Added wxImage::Replace() (for replacing colours) and wxImage::GetSubImage(). +Also corrected conversion from mono bitmaps to wxImage. + +Added wxBitmap::GetSubBitmap(). + +Removed some flicker from tree ctrl. Minor optical changes. + +Added support for multiple font and colour support for items in +list ctrls and tree ctrls. + +Added support for multiple-selection file dialog. + +Implemented wxMenuBar::Insert() and wxMenu::Insert(). There is +also a Remove() method now, but the GTK doesn't really like that. + +Enhanced wxMimeTypesManager to read GNOME and KDE file ending +bindings to MIME types and icons. + +Corrected wxExecute to longer eat up all memory and crash under +certain circumstances (Karsten Ballueder). + +wxGTK no longer gives warnings if the application shows a dialog +before entering the main loop. + +Added string to long/ulong/float conversion routines and some +more string related things. + +Updated documentation for wxFile, wxFFile and their respective +stream classes. Documented some more stream classes. + +Improved wxHTML and its help system. Options dialog, better printing, +history index. Also implemented more (cite, definition lists, etc). + +Corrected wxRegion::GetBox(). + +Added wxNotebookSizer for combining notebooks and sizers. + +Added wxDir class. Useful as a replacement for wxFileGetFirst() +and wxFileGetNext(). + +Fixed Y2000 bug in file dialog (sic.) + +Added wxStopWatch class. + +wxBitmap now derives from wxGDIObject. + +Added inlined classes for 2D geometry calculations. + +wxSpinCtrl now has its own event, intercepted using EVT_SPINCTRL. + +The ODBC classes can now be configured at run-time if they +are to use forward-only cursors or not. + +Added wxDateTime class. The existing classes wxTime and wxDate +have been reimplemented and corrected using wxDateTime. + +Rewritten wxThread to have a flag controlling if the +thread will delete its C++ class itself ("delete this") or +if the main thread must delete the C++ class. + +Added TIFF reading code, PCX writing code. + +Minor compile and build fixes for different architectures. + +Added more flags to wxSizer for proportional sizing and +centering and alignment combination and a wxNotebookSizer. + +Added controls to wxToolBars (e.g. combobox) and DeleteTool. + +Fixed several problems with buffered streams. Added support for +setting the end-of-line mode (Mac,DOS,Unix) in wxTextOutputStream. + +Added code to send events from one thread to another and added +function to wake up idle system (needed for sending inter-thread +events). + +Corrected wrongly set flag in dialogs which broke its tab code. +Also corrected navigation on wxRadioBox. + +Corrected segfaults in wxGLCanvas and stupid race when using +several such canvasses. + +Some minor updates to wxSockets. Fixed timeout problem. + +Speed-up for new encoding related font code. Minor fixes. + +Changed wxListBox to send deferred events, i.e. events emitted by +the listbox won't get processed before the next idle message. + +More minor changes and fixes. + +Began work on a new dialog and resource editor (wxDesigner). + 7st November '99: wxWindows 2.1.11 released There is still an unresolved problem with bitmap to image
