+Using and modifying the BC++ IDE files
+======================================
+
+Readme for wxWindows 2.0 Ide-files
+First release Feb. 1999, detlev@reymann-online.de
+
+1. What you can do with the BC++ IDE files
+2. Where to install the files
+3. How to modify them for your own needs
+4. How to create IDE files for your own wxWindows-programs
+
+1. What you can do with the IDE files
+=====================================
+
+There are two IDE files. src\bc32.ide should help you to
+create the wxWindows libraries from within the Ide of Borlands
+C++, v. 5.x. Note that this doesn't include debugging code: you
+need to change the settings if you wish to include debug
+information. Previously, bc32d.ide was supplied with debug
+settings, but this proved to time-consuming to maintain.
+
+2. Where to install the files
+=============================
+
+You should copy the files for the libraries into the
+src-directory of your wxWindows-Installation (e.g. C:\wxwin\src).
+And the other file for the samples should be copied into the
+samples-directory (e.g. C:\wxwin\samples).
+
+(If installing from setup.exe or wx2..._bc.zip the files
+will be installed into the appropriate directories
+automatically).
+
+3. How to modify them for your own needs
+========================================
+
+If your wxWindows-Installation resides on the same drive as your
+Borland-Compiler and additionally the Borland-Installation is
+the default (e.g. C:\BC5) then there should be no need to change
+anything. Otherwise please change the path from within the ide
+(Options->project->directories). Because we use the
+$inherit-macro (Julian found the trick), this should work.
+
+To add a new sample to samples\bc32.ide, follow these steps:
+
+1. Choose Project->New target... and type in e.g.
+   samples\newsample. Press OK.
+2. Static, no OWL, MFC or class libraries. Check Multithread
+   on. Press OK.
+3. Right-click on the new node, choose Add node... and add
+   ..\lib\wx32.lib and ..\lib\xpm.lib. Add any other source
+   files you require.
+4. Right-click on the new node, choose Edit Local Options.. and
+   add in Directories, specify the following:
+
+   Include: $inherit;.\newsample
+   Library: $inherit;
+   Source:  .\newsample
+   Intermediate: .\newsample
+   Final: .\newsample
+
+4. How to create IDE files for your own wxWindows-programs
+==========================================================
+
+If you want to create an IDE file for your own wxWindows program,
+please follow these steps.
+
+1. Create a new project from the menu file->new->project.
+2. Deactivate all the standard-options, the only three things
+   that should be activated are "static" for the libraries,
+   the checkbox OLE (you can leave this checkbox unchecked,
+   but then you have to add the library \bc5\lib\ole2w32.lib
+   to your project), and the Multithread checkbox.
+3. Add the include-path of wxWindows to the include-path in the
+   options-dialog (options->project->directories->include). The
+   result should be something like:
+   path_of_my_program;\bc5\include;\wxwin2\include;
+4. Add the libraries to the project. Open the project-view and
+   activate your program. Then right-click and choose "add" and
+   select the wxWindows library (e.g. \wxwin\lib\wx32.lib). Also
+   add the xpm library.
