Hey there.
I am trying to use geany to compile some C++, but i don't even know how to link a library.

I don't have experience using gcc or g++, i tried to read the manpage it's too damn huge.
I'm trying to use wxwidgets which I I already use in python... but i haven't succed... ok, so here it goes:

1. All the examples i see out there include "wx/wx.h". I performed a whereis and o got this:

wx: /usr/lib/wx /usr/include/wx

I guess i should include one of those paths in the "set include and compile arguments" dialogin geany. Which one?... can anybody give me a tip on which option and argument I should set on gcc?

2. I think i installed all the necessary packages to use the wx library and run wx applications. But in case, can anybody tell me which packages do i really need?

3. This is a really dummy one... what does 'build' really means... like... "creates an executable files" that's what geany says, but isn't that compiling?
