I tried to disconnect wxSTC from the wxWidgets wrappers last night. I
think it will take some doing however. Since they'll share the same
lua namespace, they don't have to, but I would like the generic
flexibility of putting multiple wrappers into the same namespace, any
additional wrappers overwrite earlier ones. I have to do some reading
up on how to add more to lua in C. I hope it won't be too hard.

That is a simple little utility, basicly just grep wxLUA_USE* for the
.i files. I will try to find it if I can.

See above about separating it.

ok.

I would be nice to be able to build the wxbind lib for different
wxluasetup.h files, one lib for the wxLua app and others for your
programs that use wxLua as a library. Sorry, I didn't follow this too
closely.
