done

updated configure to do it

you can see them in cvs diffs ;)


I'm currently stopped by errors about include paths like:


#include "../../contrib/src/stc/scintilla/include/Platform.h" // for 
PRectangle
#include "../../contrib/src/stc/scintilla/include/PropSet.h"  // for SString


which refer to non-existent files in my wxCode tree.
These should be really transformed into something else...
unfortunately I checked the wxWidgets contrib section and I've found 
that on Unix scintilla headers are not installed anywhere...

so my proposed fix is:
1) on win32, add the %WXWIN%/contrib/src/stc/scintilla/include path
2) on unix, add a check for these headers. If they are not available, 
tell the user to use the --with-wxdir option to indicate the full path 
of the wxWidgets source tree and use it to install scintilla headers.
Or else, ask the wxdev to add scintilla headers to install rules.
