I don't have the errors on my shell anymore. One of the files that I recall 
modifying was "Fl_JPEG_Image.cxx". Basically the the "jpeglib.h" header is 
inside the jpeg subdirectory. Likewise for png, zlib (I don't recall the 
filenames anymore). Have you tried downloading fltk 1.1.9 and compiling with 
Cygwin tools?

I guess my statement wasn't valid as when I first started out I had downloaded 
(actually checked out from your repository) FLTK2 (if you've followed from the 
time I first posted on this forum up to the solution). There is a file 
"README.osx" from that FLTK2 environment that basically was saying anybody 
trying to build on a Mac should forget about it(alpha stage). I'm sure now 
armed with the experience of how to get it working on Windows, I can get it to 
work on OS X too. But thank goodness, the applications I'm writing are going to 
be portable. So for now I don't need to mess with OS X specific details unless 
I have more time...
