 do you know offhand if there's a way to tell whether the "no_tk" erlang i
 built according to Marcus's instructions above actually linked agains the
 system wxWidgets? I tried:
 {{{
 $ otool -L /opt/local/bin/erlc
 /opt/local/bin/erlc:
         /usr/lib/libutil.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current
 version 1.0.0)
         /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current
 version 124.1.1)
 }}}
 but I'm not sure that's asking the right question.

 > Is it known that erlang can be built without wxWidgets? In my
 (admittedly quick) looking around, it seems like it really wants it
 available...
 i just asked this very question on the [http://groups.google.com/group
 /erlang-programming erlang-questions] mailing list (hasn't shown up yet in
 the archive though). so hopefully we'll hear some official word soon.
