oh... I thought it must exist! ;-) but I still didn't find it... I'll look better...

It's a little link at the bottom of the paragraph on installing the Windows binary.

mhhh... confused! if I don't have wx-config I cannot enable the new wxPython GUI! (configure fails)

Leave out the --with-wxwigets. This is only used for compiling vdigit. Or maybe put in --without-wxwidgets.

Or you can leave it in and just ignore the error compiling vdigit I think.

Martin??

Yes, you're right. I'm working on a new MSYS environment for GRASS, and I'm trying to build the most options as possible to let user work on and test them in WinGrass (even if I'm not personally able to use those options).

If you tell me what data GRASS Makefile needs from wx-config file, I could modify configure and Makefile in order to work without wx-config


I don't think this is necessary.

There is a separate dev Windows package that you need to instal for
wx-config. This has been a confusing issue for many of us. There is a
dev package for Linux that is part of the normal group of
installations that you can install or not. The same files are
installed automatically in the Mac binary, but put in a different
place than Linux puts them. I saw a link for a Windows dev package on
the binary downloads page for wxPython and suppose that this where
you get these files for Windows--though I don't know where Windows
will put them.

That said, you don't need to install this unless you want to try to
compile the new in-development digitizer. Most people are still
having difficulty compiling this and I know that Martin is actively
working on it. It would certainly be helpful to him if you wanted to
try compiling the digitizer in Windows--but this isn't necessary to
run the rest of the wxPython GUI.

You don't need to enable Python in GDAL to use the wxPython GUI. But
perhaps you are trying to enable Python in GDAL for other reasons?
