- New classes: wxFileName, wxHtmlWindow
- New wrappers: select_tree_item(), delete_tree_children(), is_visible()
- Both versions use build #8.

- set_ip_host() was using the wrong wxWidgets call under Linux
(Thanks to Mario Steele)
v0.7.1 - Fixed get_list_string() to work for wxListCtrl on Linux
- Fixed constructor for wxURL on Linux
- Linux uses library build #7.
v0.7.0 - Fixed set_brush() and set_back_brush() to work with wxMemoryDC
under GTK

wxFontEnumerator, wxCursor

- Added global constant wxTrue
- Uses build 5
- Added several new wxSizer functions.
- Added get_key_state() (from wxMSW 2.5.5, and implemented in Euphoria for wxGTK,
since the wxGTK implementation only works for shift, ctrl, alt keys)
- Fixed bug in Linux where wxWidgets frees image handlers and that memory
is reused, cplusplus.e still thought the object was of the old class' type
(thanks to Eumario)
- Added font_ok() to check for a valid wxFont
v0.5.0 - New classes: wxTextAttr, wxStaticLine, wxStaticBox, wxCalendarCtrl
- Fixed constructor for wxTextCtrl so that default parameters can be used for
id, text, size and position.
- wxEuphoria will display an error message and abort if open_dll( wxWin_name ) fails
- Cleaned up warnings
- Size of wxColour was wrong under Windows
- Can now destroy() controls
- Added version constant wxEuphoria_Version = {0,5,0}
- Can set the column labels in a wxListCtrl: set_column_label()
- Fixed bug in constructor for wxToggleButton
- Uses library build 4. The file is now named wxeu.[dll|so]
- Allows you to change the location or name of the wxEuphoria library by
declaring a global function wxEu_Lib that returns the path to the
wxEuphoria library.
- set_text_back_color() works correctly in Linux
- Change instance memory handling to cooperate with wxWidgets under Win32
so that memory is freed in the correct place
- cleanup() added. This should be manually called before your app exits
if you don't use wxMain() ( wxMain() calls cleanup() automatically before exit)
- set_status_text() now checks to make sure that you don't set a status field that doesn't exist
(thanks to CK Lester)
- Global constant wxFalse is now 0 (was a pointer to the actual value) (thanks to CK Lester)

wxSocketServer, wxURL, wxInputStream, wxIPV4Address, wxHTTP, wxFTP

wxPrintDialog, wxProgressDialog, wxColourDialog
(see also color_selector)

- wxDialog has been moved from wxEuphoria.e to the new file wxDialog.e
- Support for popup- and sub- menus (See Menus)
- create(), call_member(), call_member_s(), call_cdecl(), call_cdecl_s()
will now take an atom if only one parameter is passed
+ A wxString can be created without wrapping the string in
an extra set of braces:
str = create( wxString, "A String" )
- Uses Libarary build 3
- Checks for Library build >= Required build (used to be =)
- platform.pl ported to Euphoria (platform.exw)
- blit() parameters were incorrect (src and dst coords were swapped)

wxFileDataObject, wxDropTarget, wxFileDropTarget
- New functions:
+ file_selector()
+ get_sys_metric()
+ get_sys_color()
- Uses Library build 2
+ Both
* Added string access routines ( wxChoice, wxComboBox, wxGrid, wxClipboard)
* Moved implementation of some routines from grid.h to grid.cpp to
allow them to be exported
+ Win32:
* Added call to IDataObject::AddRef when adding data to the clipboard
* GetColour added for use in get_sys_colour
- Dumped fptr.e and added some code in src\common\utilscmn.cpp for calling
functions. Random crashes have disapeared. Still seem to need string
accessors, though.

+ Win32: Borland C++ v5.5 (free version)
+ Linux gcc v3.2
+ Library build 1 for both platforms (WX_DLL_BUILD)

+ All files are *.e with platform specific code wrapped with
'preprocessor' directives (see platform.pl)
+ Library exports managed through EuSQL databases
+ generate.exw, wxeu.exw, EDB forms included to assist db and
file maintenance
7/3/2003
* Got rid of cross-platform + platform-specific includes. Combined
into platform-specific format.
