Sorry, I usually (always) distribute that stuff without the configure  
created.

You just need to run autoconf in the fltk top directory, and that  
should create the configure files for you. e.g.;

     cd fltk118...
     autoconf
     ./configure --enable-threads --enable-xft (etc.)

Actually, come to think of it, I'd be surprised if "make" didn't just  
do that anyway... Try just typing make in the top dir, and see if it  
invokes autoconf for you. If it does, then just wait until it starts  
compiling things, hit Ctrl-C and go back and re-run configure with  
your preferred options set.

I think it must be a linux/unix box you are on (given your target  
project) so I guess the necessary tools will all be in place.  
(Although I put together an ubuntu box recently and was surprised how  
much stuff their default leaves out...! Including autoconf...)
