I was going to say that the above link didn't work for me either
until I remembered to remove the =20 at the end. This will work:
http://src.gnu-darwin.org/ports/x11-toolkits/flu/work/FLU_2.14/

It also reminded me that I had trawled through all of the Links
pages a while ago, and weeded out the dead links to come up with:

  Article #884: What third party widgets are available for FLTK?
  http://fltk.org/articles.php?L884

So why I hadn't remembered and checked there first I don't know :-(

If you go to the Flu_Dual_Slider doxygen page from the link above,
the list of public methods is quite limited, so the interface looks
to be quite simple. He does allow "overlap" where "low" == "high".
He has derived it from Fl_Valuator, which is interesting, because
that only supports a single "value" so I would be curious how he
has implemented it.

However, although he appears to be using the FLTK licence, I don't
think we should just base our code on hiswithout understanding our
own vision / requirements.

Cheers

PS. I shall update the article to include the link above [Done]
