What is wxWidgets ?
wxWidgets (formerly wxWindows) gives you a single, easy-to-use API for writing GUI applications on multiple platforms. Link with the appropriate library for your platform (Windows/Unix/Mac, others coming shortly) and compiler (almost any popular C++ compiler), and your application will adopt the look and feel appropriate to that platform. On top of great GUI functionality, wxWidgets gives you: online help, network programming, streams, clipboard and drag and drop, multithreading, image loading and saving in a variety of popular formats, database support, HTML viewing and printing, and much, much more.
Depending on the platform wxWidgets are running on and the libraries the application is going to be linked to, the following wxWidgets supports are available:
- wxUniversal: Supporting natively any platform
- wxBase: Text-only support
- wxMac: For MacOS X/Carbon, MacOS Classic
- wxCocoa: For MacOS X/Cocoa (Under development)
- wxX11: For XLib on Unix
- wxGTK: For GTK+ versions 1 and 2 on Unix
- wxQt: For Qt libraries on Unix (Under development)
- wxMSW: Windows (32 and 64 bits). Windows 16 bits is no longer maintained
- wxOS2: OS/2 support
- wxMGL: Using the multi-platform MGL library
- wxBasic: For Basic language
- wxMotif: For Motif language (No longer maintained)
- wxPerl: For Perl language
- wxPython: For Python language support
- wxTCL: For TCL language support
- wxLua: For Lua language
- wxPalmOS: Port for PalmOS
- wxWinCE: Port for *WinCE/Mobile
- wxNano-X: Port for *Nano-X
- wxMicroWindows: Port for *Microwindows
- other ports such as wxCurses, wxJavaScript, wxNextStep, wxGEOS, wxBEOS, etc...

Links in this wiki regarding wxWidgets:
- Manual wxWidgets compilation
- Check if wx is installed twice (since having it installed twice is a common source of compilation problems)
- How to uninstall wxWidgets
NOTE: aMule is a separate project and is not realated to wxWidgets in any way (apart from using it as it's widgets library).
