-NOTES:
-------
-This is a cut down snapshot of fltk-1.1.x-r6041 merged in a somewhat
-haphazard manner with the OksiD UTF-8 patch (for fltk-1.1.6)
-Then some of the UTF functions from FLTK2 were back-ported into the
-mix.
-
-This code has also been modified to implement the XFT support on X
-that was missing from the fltk-1.1.6 variant.
-
-I have also introduced a number of extra test programs into the "demo"
-directory - to test DnD operation, and to verify the behaviour Fl::add_fd()
-on various platforms (this test also verifies some aspects of UDP multicast
-operation that was causing issues on win32 with winsock-1.1.)
-These two examples are accessed from the Demo program in the Events submenu.
-
-There is also an extended font-chooser/unicode font display test, derived
-from the utf8 test that OksiD had added to fltk-1.1.6-utf8.
-This is accessed in the Demo program under the Other Tests/Font Tests
-submenu.
-
-
-This code has been tested on linux (FC7), WinXP with mingw
-and OSX 10.4.11.
-The OSX port MUST HAVE the QUARTZ mode enabled in configure to
-work (the older fltk QD code will not work.)
-
-
-Linux
------
-This code has been built with the following configure options
-on the linux platform:
-
-./configure --enable-threads --enable-xft
-
-At present the code also works without XFT enabled (as the original OksiD
-code did) but I can't count on that state of affairs being permanent!
-
-./configure --enable-threads
-
-
-WIN32
------
-On WinXP, the code was built with mingw in an Msys shell with the
-following configure options:
-
-./configure --enable-threads
-
-Was used an a box that already has image libs installed.
-
-./configure --enable-threads --enable-localjpeg --enable-localzlib --enable-localpng
-
-Was used an a box that does not have image libs installed.
-
-Both cases function as expected.
-
-I do not have access to the MS compler tools here, so the code is untested with
-their compilers. I do not think I have introduced any incompatabilities but...
-Feedback welcome.
-
-NOTE: The "standard" FLTK-1.1 build uses the (deprecated) winsock-1.1 libs.
-This revised code uses the (allegedly) better winsock-2 libs instead.
-This means you will probably have to change the link options in any existing
-projects to incorporate this change - the libs are *NOT* reliably inter-changeable!
-(fltk-utf8-config will return the correct libs for use.)
-
-
-OSX
----
-The OSX build was configured with:
-
-./configure --enable-threads --enable-quartz
-
-
-Issues
-------
-At time of writing, the code seems to "work", but there are issues:
-
-- The build is "noisy".
-
-- The gl font handling is not ideal under XFT (but it always was
- anyway. We need a glXUseXftFont method really, but that doesn't seem
- to exist...I could try and write one, but time...)
-
-- The xim stuff is still needing work - I'm pretty sure I have broken this
-
-- Input methods under win32? I don't know.
-
-- Input Methods under OSX? No idea.
-
-- The code is now badly formatted in places from all my random
- cut'n'paste...
