Changes in this release
-----------------------
Please see changes.txt for details.
Note that there is a new contrib hierarchy for contributions,
which mirrors the regular wxWindows hierarchy. The Object
Graphics Library and MMedia library have been moved under
contrib, so you may need to change your makefiles or project
files, together with your source files. E.g. change #include "ogl.h"
to #include <wx/ogl/ogl>.
Also VC++ project files and makefiles have been made more
consistent, so some paths and library names have changed.
Platforms supported

- Mac (not covered here: please see the wxWindows web site
for details)
Additionally, the wxBase library containing only the non GUI classes can be
built under Unix/Win32 and (with some limitation) BeOS.
Most popular C++ compilers are supported; see the install.txt
file for each platform (available via docs/html/index.htm) for details.

Files
-----
The distribution is available in a number of formats.
The most convenient is the platform-specific distribution,
but the zip set forms a more complete distribution, for example if
you wish to take part in wxWindows development. Also, add-ons
such as OGL may only be available in zip form.
Zip set
-------
Depending on what you downloaded, you may have one or more of
these ports. You may unarchive any or all of the ports into
the same directory hierarchy. The zip archive set comprises the
following, where x is the minor version and y the release number:
wx2_x_y_gen.zip Generic source code and samples (required)
wx2_x_y_msw.zip Windows-specific source code
wx2_x_y_mot.zip Motif-specific source code
