+wxWidgets is a set of libraries that allows C++ applications to compile and
+run on several different types of computer, with minimal source code changes.
+There is one library per supported GUI (such as Windows, GTK+, Motif, and
+Mac). As well as providing a common API (Application Programming Interface)
+for GUI functionality, it provides functionality for accessing some
+commonly-used operating system facilities, from copying and deleting files
+to socket and thread support. wxWidgets is a 'framework' in the sense that
+it provides a lot of built-in functionality, which the application can use
+or replace as required, thus saving a great deal of coding effort. Basic data
+structures such as strings, arrays, linked lists and hash tables are also
+supported.
 
-There is also a python interface available, wxPython (see the
-py-wxWindows pkg).
+Such a toolkit is not unique - there are others to choose from - but wxWidgets
+is free, well-established, well-documented, and very broad in its coverage
+of GUI functionality. It has some extras that make it stand out from the

+printing, virtual filesystems, easy-to-use OLE automation controller class,
