Well, I managed to install VC6 (from 1998 - that's thirteen years ago - whew!) 
on Windows 7. After a bit of fiddling, I made large parts of FLTK3 compile. 8.3 
filenames. What a blast form the past ;-)

Anyway, what doesn't work is - not surprisingly - compiling the png library. I 
have not tried jpeg, but I am pretty sure it's not going to work either.

What is the general opinion on supporting VisualC 6 ('98) and with it Windows 
95 and Windows NT?

So the choices are, as I see it:
 1: drop VC6 and Windows 95/NT support
 2: add libpng and libjpeg in the last version that builds under VC6, best 
probably as a binary
