+ <b>Data structures:</b>
+
+ The following are the operating systems which are recognized by wxWidgets and
+ whose version can be detected at run-time.
+ The values of the constants are chosen so that they can be combined as flags;
+ this allows to check for operating system families like
+ e.g. wxOS_MAC and wxOS_UNIX.

+ The list of wxWidgets ports.
+ Some of them can be used with more than a single (native) toolkit;
