Fine with me, but will the next become?

wxmsw[wxversion without dots][u][d]_[libname].lib

wxl_msw_wxluaversion without dots][u][d]_[libname].lib

As you see wxl_ is i think better then wxmsw.
It must be clear we are taliking wxLua.
Same i would say:

a2d_msw etc.

I think this is confusing, since those numbers normally mean something else.
Also i do not think that wxLuaversionX will be different for different 
version of wxWidgets.
At least that was the goal of the *.i files.

I would keep the versions of wxLua and wxArt2D independent from wxWidgets.
It should be in the install.html and configure etc. ( there are/will be 
more dependencies, so where would one stop??)
Also i am thinking in the future wxWidgets might get to the level that 
wxCode stuff will be moduler/pluggable.
In that case we certainly not have the situation that each module goes 
in the same pase with wxWidgets.
So better decide a solution that works always in al  situations, which 
is what i think keep the version seperated.
