Hi Shahab,

Sorry about the slow reply. I haven't been following this list closely to
date; I try to keep a closer eye on it in future.

You are the first one that I am aware of who has compiled gSpiceUI on FreeBSD
so you are breaking new ground. I'm currently developing gSpiceUI under Redhat
9.0 and wxWidgets v2.5.2.

I haven't come across any of the above 3 problems myself but I'll modify the 
code as you suggest.

I'll try using "powf(10, i2);" as suggested by Werner Hoch.

All the code is lovely hand crafted. I'm very particular about the code
formatting since in the long term it makes it easier to maintain. In addition
I don't like the idea of being locked into using particular development tools
if it can be avoided.
