> I compiled fltk-1.1.6 on Slackare 10 using gcc-3.3.4 and installed it in /usr. I also have fltk-1.0.11 installed in /usr/local/bin compiled with gcc-2.95.3 for use with POSE, the old Palm emulator. Both compiled fine and coexist happily on the same system. POSE comiled, installed and runs OK.

> I tried to compile this example program against fltk-1.1.6 and it failed. Firstly, there is a problem with box->labeltype(FL_SHADOW_LABEL);
> I looked in the header files and couldn't find FL_SHADOW_LABEL, but I did find _FL_SHADOW_LABEL. Using that introduces a new breakage into the program. (I am not a C++ expert, I am trying to learn and decided to try fltk since it looked fairly simple.)
