Umm... I don’t think that’s they way it works. 
Rather, you just make up your own function (of the appropriate signature, of course) and then assign that to Fl::error which is basically just a pointer to whatever the current error function is.

So something like (I’m freestyling this so it may not be literally correct...!)


static void my_error (const char *fmt, ...)
{
  blah garages blah etc;
  return;
}



Fl::error = my_error;


etc...


Well, something like that, anyway!
