Has any step by step instructions by posted anywhere to compiling CB with stuff like running update.bat? I was just wondering. I found the wxWidgets instructions fine.

Do you mean other than these (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php/Compiling_wxWidgets_2.6.1_to_develop_Code::Blocks_%28MSW%29)?

There's nothing much to know about (assumming you have the libraries compiled and working). Usually we use codeblocks to compile itself. There are two projects: One for wxwidgets 2.6.x, and another for 2.4.2. (that's in the VERSION_1_0 branch, i'm not sure about HEAD branch).
So you open the project, build, and then go to the src directory.
Open a command window (MS-DOS), and run update.bat. Your new files are in the output directory.

Or you (double-)click update.bat to run it like any other program, it'll start in its own window that closes when it's done. Why go through the trouble of opening a command window if Windows'll do it for you? ;). (If you're on Linux, run the 'update' shell script instead)

Actually, no. Those are the instructions to compile wxWidgets, but someone else already answered my question. You use CB itself to compile itself.
