Very true - I'm grateful FLTK exists and is useful. I just wish I had no 
reason to have to read the code.

This seems like such a religious issue but a style guideline would be 
useful for community code, especially for us ancients for whom IDE means 
emacs.

Ditto, but seeing as the only likelihood of seeing the bugs I find 
getting fixed, I've been tempted.

the back. Not that I remember any of it ...
