Here is a usage scenario: Imagine a pair of cooperating applications, one
with a GUI and one without. The first one configures the second in some
way by storing settings using the preferences mechanism. Right now the
non-GUI one also needs to be linked with everything (X11, Xinerama, Xft,
etc. under Linux; GDI32, ADVAPI32, ADVCTL32, etc. under Windows). The only
reason for this is that Fl_Preferences "pulls in" the graphics references
through the Fl_Tree widget. This can be a problem if you want to run the
non-GUI application on, say, a minimal install Linux system w/o X11. My
patch only restores the "status quo ante" before the tree widget was added
at around 1.3.x-r7000. Before that you could (static) link a non-GUI
application with fltk to get the file name handling and preferences
classes and not have to include any of the graphics libraries.
