Greetings,

I have posted a snapshot of my efforts to blend Squeak with the wxWidgets
GUI library. Downloads are available at
            http://homepage.mac.com/rgayvert/wxsqueak.html.

Notes:
  - Currently Win32 only
  - Wrapper methods are implemented only for core framework and demo classes
  - Uses version 2.5.1 of the wxWidgets library
  - Supports (in theory) most of the wxPython API
  - Uses synchronous callbacks to Squeak via interpret()
  - Built using a single internal plugin
  - Most of the plugin methods are generated by parsing the wxWidgets docs
  - Uses a modified VM (minor tweaks to ioProcessEvents() and interpret()
    are needed to provide synchronous callbacks to wx events).

Any comments or suggestions are appreciated.

.. Rob
