+wxOSX/Cocoa is another port of wxWidgets for the Macintosh OS
+platform. In contrast to wxOSX/Carbon, it uses the Cocoa API
+in place of Carbon. Much work has gone into this port and many
+controls are functional, but the port has not reached the maturity

on 64-bit architectures.
For further information, please see the files in @c docs/osx
in the distribution.
+Note that there was a previous effort towards a Cocoa port called
+wxCocoa, which is implemented totally with Cocoa API unlike the OSX/Cocoa port
+which uses OS X C APIs to share code, and while it is no longer being actively
+developed, docs for it are available at @c docs/cocoa in the distribution.
