Thanks for the info. > As a matter of fact it's not a simple port. At the present moment, it's > rather version 1.1.9 with support the DirectFB.

This will definitely not be 1.1.x, but as someone else mentioned a long time ago (I found an old post somewhere), we're interested in having DirectFB support in the distribution. At least we'll evaluate it, and see how it can be done. As mentioned earlier, there are plans to redesign the device dependent parts, and that would be the point, when official DirectFB support could be added. I can't look into the future, but this will maybe be FLTK 1.5 or later. But I think (hope) that this will not be in the very far future. > The project needs to be improved.

Until we can start DirectFB support we have your port, and that's good to know. It's almost up-to-date, and users can use it. Something like Oksid's FLTK 1.1.6 utf-8 support - now we're working on its integration in the distribution. >> Looks like it is almost up-to-date (FLTK 1.1.9), right? > > Yes, so far I have no necessity to do new port ( 1.3.x) for our embedded > devices. > > PS Today I'd commited into the git my old changes (it's not very critical > things). I'll have a look (just for curiosity), but I didn't find a direct download link for a source tarball, and what I found was a .tar.gz file that couldn't be read. Is there a way to download a complete tarball of your sources without installing git? Do you have a link for us? Thanks for your time and your port.
