You do not say which version of fltk you are using - it helps us to
answer in a meaningful way if you do...

Normal - the Msys and Msys DTK stuff do not provide an implementation of
"man".

But that does not matter - the really useful parts of the fltk docs are
encoded as html anyway for the most part...

Probably not, in general.

Run the demo.exe from the test folder, and from there try out the basic
test executables. If they all seem to work, you are good to go.

If you are using fltk-1.1.10 (and if you are just getting started you
should be, as it is the current stable version) then you can open the
index.html file from the fltk documentation folder in your usual
browser, and start reading the docs...

Then try playing with the example source in the test folder, see how you
get on.

This howto might help you build your code using fltk-config, which saves
you from struggling too much with compiler options!
