description:
fltk-1.1.x-r4229 fails to compile "out-of-the-box" when building with the visualc project files. the compiler reports:

C:\Program Files\fltk-1.1.x-r4229\fluid\fluid.cxx(74) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'zlib.h': No such file or directory

fault analysis:
* recent release of fltk are bundled with copies of libpng and zlib
* accordingly, visualc/config.h #defines HAVE_LIBPNG and HAVE_LIBZ.
* fluid/fluid.cxx attempts to #include <png.h> and <zlib.h>
* within visualc/fluid.dsp, the include path only indicates: ".,..,../png"

solution:
append "../zlib" to the include path, resulting in: ".,..,../png,../zlib"

nb: the include path may be viewed and edited from the "c/c++ preprocessor page" within the project settings dialog box.

nb: i suspect this fault has gone undetected, because many users' compile with mingw/gcc, or install zlib separately (and do not rely on the bundled copy).

Thanks. I did see the png link problem, but missed the zlib one. Will fix it this weekend.
