Hi Marco,
First up, for future reference, post questions about FLTK in fltk.general -
fltk.development is reserved for developer discussions!

You *could* try modifying the char buffer you pass to add(), however I'd
probably advise against this. I know label() screws around if you modify the
char buffer, so I would assume .add() to do something similar.

You can use a fltk::List for rapidly change items - you can modify only one
element and the Browser should do a lot of the work for you when it comes to
redrawing. I haven't tried this with many thousands of elements, but it should
still work.
There is a brief example in test/list.cxx.
Hope this helps!
Ben
