wxterm

[Daniel F. <boy...@gm...>]

Hello.

Are there any instructions to follow to get wxterm working on either
Linux or MacOS 10.5. I would like to see what it is like. Can anybody
suggest links to the packages and or source and tell me any special
compilation instructions if the deviate from the usual configure, make
and sudo make install.

Regards,

Dan

No special instructions. Normal ./configure and build, but it requires
that you have already installed the development packages for
	libcairo
	libpango
	libpangocairo
	libwx-gtk2
	wxgtk2
and these may drag in other dependencies.  The actual package names
will differ from one linux distro to another.


MacOS 10.5

I have heard that pango/cairo is broken on 10.5 for most 3rd party
apps.  Check google for more details.  The Gnome project announced
intentions to provide a complete set of rebuilt libraries for OSX,
but I'm not sure that has happened yet.

I'm not sure if pango and cairo are broken on MacOS X, since I have not 
tried it. But I can assure that wxt will not work, because of GUI events 
loop issues. I am working on them, but it's not finished yet. However, 
the pdfcairo and pngcairo that current CVS contains should work as they 
do an Linux.

Best regards,
