Hi Francesco, today is as good as any to learn some C++ eh? : )  I
decided to try setting up a build environment for UsbPicProg. I
installed wxDev-C++ v7.3.1.3 on Win7 32-bit (thinking it would be
better-suited to developing wxWidgets-based applications), installed
TortoiseSVN v1.6.7, retrieved the trunk from SVN, updated the paths to
libusb.h, but then got stuck on the wxWidgets dependency. I know it
needs the wxWidgets-2.9.0 "libraries" but what exactly needs to go
where? The folder tree is rather complex, and wxWidgets can be
compiled in an alarming number of ways. Even tried doing "configure"
under MSYS. I'll keep plugging away at it, but any additional hints
would be very helpful.

I can also "build" wxWidgets-2.9.0 according to
http://wxdsgn.sourceforge.net/?q=node/9 but I have not tried
installing this as a DevPak in wxDev-C++ (and really doubt it would
work anyways.)
