nanogui: Thread: [Nano-X] FLTK 1.0.9 port

Dear All,

	I've just made fltk 1.0.9 working on Nano-X based on TangHao's
	fltk 1.0.7 port (fltk-nanox-pre6.tar.gz).

I presume there is some effort going on to merge all these FLTK
tarballs( flmwin 1.07, flnx 1.07, flnx 1.09 ) to a single
source tree.

Yes, I plan on making that happen.  For the time being, I've
been working hard just trying to get Microwindows to run well
with FLTK.  This has made tremendous progress.

My next step is going to be to produce an Xlib-to-Nano-X
conversion layer (initially soley through macro defines) that
will allow most of the FLTK for X port to remain untouched...

The ViewML browser that we just announced is currently
using 1.0.7.  As soon as we get the ViewML on Nano-X
running well, I would like to merge to 1.0.9.  Stay tuned.

If there are other issues associated with Murphy's 1.0.9
port to NX, please let me know.

Regards,

Greg

One thing you need to remember that breaks viewml on my box is that
X11 is threadsafe (well actually its got a lock on all the entry points)
which Nano-X does not

Very good point.  I forgot about that.  Perhaps the FLTK
Xlib wrappers should be a library with mutex on entry/exit,
just like Wine.

BTW, there's been significant progress on ViewML over the weekend,
expect a source release Monday that actually does something ;-)

Greg

	flnx 1.0.9 is based on flnx 1.0.7
	All the differences between fltk 1.0.7 and flnx 1.0.7 have been
	brought into flnx 1.0.9.

	I've just made Fl_Double_Window working. :)
