Dick, Depending on what distro you are using simply typing ./configure may not work. This depends on how the directory structure for your distro is set and possibly other factors. Also fgrun uses FLTK which from my experience requires additional work to get it to configure correctly. The configure script for fgrun will say that it didn't find fltk but it will not fail with an explicit error message. So to someone that has limited experience with these tools it will appear to be OK. On my Gentoo machine I had to configure it like this: $ CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/fltk-1.1 LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib/fltk-1.1 -L/usr/lib" ./configure --prefix=/usr It will likely be different on your machine but this should get you going in the right direction. -I/usr/include/fltk-1.1 tells it where to find the fltk include files. The configure script looks for FL.H and -L/usr/lib/fltk-1.1 tells the linker where to look for the fltk libraries. Without this it will compile but fail on the lick step.
