Re: [Gnash-dev] FLTK GUI

[Tonko Juricic]

I may give it a try again later, but it is frustrating to be a mere 8
unresolved externals away from the first executable program and have
it so trivial yet, so far practically impossible to get few integers
and functions exported. I would have to start modifying FLTK headers
to try things, maybe even create my own version of Visual Studio FLTK
project, rather than using this one from distribution which needs
conversion to VS9. But at this stage I want to see gravity.swf like
right now ... today if possible :)
