cleanup after make
After installation to a local path (configure option --prefix) the directory is filled with *.o files (maybe its the same after running make install). I think it would be useful to add the proper way to clean up those files. I delete them with rm, but I guess there is a better way... --Tigerbeard

Samples with Cmake
The listed mechanism for building samples doesn't seem to apply from 3.1.1 onwards, with the Cmake build system.
I did this to build a sample:
cd gtk-build cmake -DwxBUILD_SAMPLES=ALL .. make cube
I'm not sure in what circumstances the samples makefiles (e.g. Makefile.in, makefile.gcc, makefile.vc, etc) are used, so I'm not sure how to update this section. Jjbeard (talk) 08:13, 18 March 2019 (MDT)
