wxPerl is a wrapper built around the wxWindows GUI toolkit

Copyright (c) 2000-2001 Mattia Barbon.
This package is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.

You need wxWindows in order to build wxPerl (see http://www.wxwindows.org/).
At this moment you may only use GTK or Win32 ( Motif in alpha stage ) 
 as windowing toolkits for wxPerl.

INSTALLATION:

Build and install wxWindows

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

for more detailed instructions see the docs/install.txt file
