5 * wxWidgets is the name of the C++ library that can be installed either by your operating systems package management tool ( aptitude install  wx-common   in case of Debian ) or  by installing Alien::wxWidgets from CPAN
6 * [http://www.scintilla.org/ Scintilla] is an editor component written in C++ and used in many editors. It has been included in wxWidgets ad the STC or wxStyledTextCtrl. Padre 0.92 and later will use Wx::Scintilla instead of old Wx::STC to provide the latest and greatest from Scintilla.
7 * wxPerl is the name of the Perl binding to wxWidgets (or wrapper if you prefer that word) - It is packaged as the Wx distro on CPAN. Some of the recent Linux distros might also have.
8 * Above all that comes our code (Padre in our case)
