Keith:
Currently, I have Flnx running on my ARM-9 board. From what I am hearing, I
should dump this in favor of Fltk and nxlib as you are about to do. Could
you provide a procedure for doing this as you move forward? It may help me,
and others, to avoid some bumps and bruises along the way.....
Best Regards,
Graham..........

I use microwindows/nxlib/FLTK on i386 based system so I do not have
these problems.
I do not think you need X11 to build nxlib.
You do not want to install nxlib nor microwindows on your development
system.
You may have to modify makefiles or configs to make it work.
All you need to do is to build and link nxlib to you app and then
configure your target to contain microwindows instead of X11.

That was my impression also, but I was not 100% sure.

I tried to build nxlib, but it requires x11 to be installed.
As far as I can tell, I cannot build nxlib unless I have
a cross (powerpc) version of x11 already built.
Is there a way to cross-compile nxlib on my host system (x86)
without having to build x11 for my target (ppc) system?
