After viewing their website, I will agree. It looks complete and
functional. So, how does one use that with EUPHORIA? Is that a job for
Rob Craig? :)

All I can say is ... you must not have remembered correctly ;)

It's actually possible to compile wxWindows to a DLL/SO and use it that
way. It's a project I've been working on (and off) for about a year. I
had wxWindows 2.2.9 sort of working. It didn't work (for some unknown
reason) on XP, and I was having problems with Linux. I have intentions
of restarting with 2.4.2 (or whatever is the latest stable version when
I get going again).
You can see what I did with 2.2.9 at:

Originally, I was using ordinals, which was awful (and Windows
specific). What I ended up doing was using Dependency Viewer to get a
decorated and undecorated list of the functions. I think this only
works for MSVC name decoration, though, which was what I compiled with.
On Linux, I used whatever the Linux command is that reads the exported
symbols in a .so file.
