I don't know these days, but a few years ago I had to add all of those tests because of different names of the configure script and there were distros packing two versions of the library and using the script name to differentitate among them. *Handle with care* -- Cheers Jorge.-

1.3 port status

Yeah, the UI is just rough; that's why it's in a patch and not committed. The hope is that someone (with any luck, not me) will learn enough FLTK 1.3 to figure out how to make it nice. Making a true equivalent to fltk::PackedGroup would go a long way there, for one thing.

One more GUI bug found, the "X" at the far upper right corner for closing tabs/windows appears to be completely missing.

When opening a bookmark from dpi:/bm/ by right clicking and seleting "open link in new tab", the refresh to redraw the GUI frontend is not occurring. As such, the new tab is created invisibily and the GUI isn't refreshed showing the new tab has been opened until the user tries clicking one of the tabs. Now, once the bookmark url has been visited (I'm guessing cached), closing the tab and then reopening the tab via the same bookmark method as described above, the new tab will be visibily created and the GUI bug can no longer being seen. I'm guessing, a full window or GUI refresh or redraw is being dropped somewhere? Concerning the "File" button above the tab bar, I have none showing ... oh wait, thar it is! It's a big "F" button on the button bar next to the "Tools" button! Other then these, dillo built against fltk-1.3 looks fully functional to me so far. ...might be one or two more quirks. -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/

There is a $PNG_CONFIG in there. Hmm, a quick attempt to look through the autoconf manual doesn't say anything about how to tell --help to list env variables. What is generally done?

As long as the libpng-config can be overriden by environment / configure argument and the name of the variable is documented, that's fine. Joerg

In that people don't like the changes hiding data structures, or that it will take time before developers get their software sorted out to handle it? Is there a good reason not to use whatever libpng-config is linked to? I like the idea of not having to touch configure.in every time there's a new minor version, especially given how long we go between releases.

It seems that libpng is up to 1.5.0 now, so it's time to rip out some version tests.
