Branch: pkgsrc-2009Q4, Version: 2.4.2nb16, Package name: wxGTK24-2.4.2nb16, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

A GTK+-based implementation of the wxWidgets cross-platform GUI library.
This package contains the older 2.4 release.

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.

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
crowd, such as the many convenience dialogs, built-in HTML display and
printing, virtual filesystems, easy-to-use OLE automation controller class,
Open GL support, and many other features that make it easier to write modern
and user-friendly applications.

There is also a python interface available, wxPython (see the py-wxWidgets
package).
