Andy Jackson's patch provides the migration of the configtool to
wxWindows 2.6.x. Lars Poeschel's patch adds autoconfigury which is not
necessarily desirable if you want to develop using an IDE such as
Eclipse/CDT.
I have been experimenting with Andy Jackson's patch - it doesn't work
under Linux (FC5) unmodified. I suggest you start with Andy Jackson's
patch and modify as necessary.
Please keep in touch with your progress...
