Re: [Dev-C++] Some questions from a newbie.

[Scott S. <ssi...@sp...>]

wxWindows is a real pain to get working. The dev-pack is old. You need 
to go to www.wxwindows.org and download the latest version, then compile 
it. However, I have nevwe gotten it to work either way. wxWindows is 
supposed to be awesome, but I'm still trying to figure out how to 
install it. Maybe someone else here knows how to install it properly. I 
was getting all sorts of errors, especially redeclerations and so forth.
