Just wanted to update that after using the latest info from the both of you 
(Albrecht, Greg & others) I could build my application using your FLTK library. 
I got my application running correctly. Just for clarification, I used the 
Cygwin tools, and my OS is Windows XP. Also the "make command" as Albrecht 
pointed out doesn't work entirely correctly as there are some headers that are 
*INCORRECTLY* included in the jpeg, png e.t.c source files that would not 
compile. (I corrected them in my environment, but that is not an overall 
solution, of course). When I was first starting out with FLTK, I was running my 
application under OS X, but found a README file stating that FLTK on OS X is 
still in the alpha phase. I didn't want to take the long route, so moved to 
Windows, which seemed to be supported.

But otherwise, I would like to say thank you to everybody. Your support has 
been top class! :-D
