Just an update, that after changing the paths as I had suspected, the
compilation problems are gone. However, the linker doesn't find the FLTK
library and fails miserably. I took a look in "/usr/local/lib" and found seven
files there starting like "libfltk2_z.a". I guess these are library files
needed? Now the command I issued was:
g++ -Wall TestFastLiteLib.cpp -o TestFastLiteLib
-I/usr/local/include/fltk/compat/ -L/usr/local/lib -lXext -lX11 -lm
