[Dev-C++] wxWidgets Install

[Roger F. <ra...@ha...>]

Aloha from Honolulu,
   I'm just beggining with a wxWidgets installation and some issues are 
puzzelling me: the installation notes say to alter the WXWIN environment 
variable.  Can somebody tell me what that is?
   The notes also say to use only forward slashes / to designate 
directories and sub-directories (from my MSDOS days I still call 'em 
that), I think that only applies within certain files or the WXWIN 
environment variable since windows (I'm using WinXP Pro) has always used 
back slashes \ in directory commands and when displaying same.  Can 
somebody help clear this up a bit?
Mahalo (Thank You),
Roger Furer
