HOWTO

# FLTK
# ====
# Below are the latest 1.x and 2.x versions.  They can both be installed at
# the same time because everything in 2.x that had fltk in the name is
# named fltk2.
#
# 2.0 hasn't been released yet, so be aware that the 2.x version below is a
# snapshot.

# Prerequisites (either version):
# groff
# HTMLDOC (optional)
# grep
# libjpeg
# zlib
# libpng
# XFree86 or X.org
# OpenGL (which is included with X, or Mesa)

# FLTK 1.1.7
