        "Building fltk" should first build the fltk.lib and put it in the 'lib' 
directory,
        then it should go and build the examples which will reference the newly 
built lib
        file.

        Not sure what build environment you're using (VS, mingw, etc).

        Also, since fltk 1.3 is still in dev, it'd be good to know which
        fltk 1.3 you downloaded; svn current, or one of the date stamped 
snapshots.

        Guessing Microsoft Visual Studio Express build environment:

                1) open VS Express

                2) Choose Open->Project/Solution, click on the 
fltk\ide\fltk.dsw file
                   (answer 'Yes to all' for any dialog warning about project 
conversion)

                3) Just below the menu bar, change 'Debug' to 'Release'

                4) In the "Solution Explorer" window, scroll to the very top

                5) Right click on:
                   'fltk' solution (xx projects)
                   ..and choose 'Build Solution"

        This should (a) build the FLTK libs, and (b) build the example programs
        which you can then run.

        If that doesn't work, paste the build log, and we can maybe tell what's 
up.
