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.
