the readme file doesn't really content importants informations

"** build wxD

- extract
- compile
windows:
  set WXDIR=<path to wxWidgets>
  make all test"

when I indicate a makefile, I get a different error:

C:\wxWidgets-2.8.4\wxd\wxc>make -f Makefile WXDIR=C:\wxWidgets-2.8.4
make: *** No rule to make target `wx-release-win.obj', needed by `wx-release.exe
'.  Stop.

The wxD website is a little less sparse,
http://wxd.sourceforge.net/#installation

That should be a simple C++ -> EXE rule,
not sure why your Make didn't have that...


You will probably have more luck with wxD support on the wxD project site than on the digitalmars.D forum, since most are using other GUI.

It should work out of the box with MinGW's MSYS shell, but currently there is no-one maintaining the Windows makefiles for Digital Mars C.
