OK - all good so far. > But I can't get a larger OpenGL/FLTK > app to compile. The compiler couldn't find config.h. Ah! Why is your code looking for config.h? It is really meant only to be used internally by fltk, to tailor itself to each specific platform. But it is not generally intended that it would be used by other code... > There isn't one in the FL folder.

Actually, the "deault" place for "config.h", if built with a full configure script, is actually in the top fltk folder (next to the configh.in file!), so if you *have* to put it anywhere, that would be the "right" place. But you really ought not be using it at all. Whay *are* you using it, BTW? > Didn't help. Get 219 compile errors with or > without the config.h file. Lots of the errors emanate from > windef.h.

Thanks. Something is hosed in your installation. We need to figure out what. Others are using 1.1.10 succesfuly in the same set up as you, so rest assured we can make it work, we just need to figure out what's mangled here...
