 Yes, I agree. Corrected.

 Hmm, I wonder why is it called "Tips". It should be "Tips.txt"... It seems
that install doesn't interpret its argument as directory for some reason.
I've tried to fix it but as I don't see the problem here I'm not sure if I
really did it.

 Sorry, what do you mean?

 This should be fixed now.

 wxWindows only looks in the standard locations and M doesn't add its
PREFIX to the list of paths to search. I'll correct this.

 This _might_ be fixed by my todays changes. Please let me know if the
problem still persists.

 Thanks!
