Yes... it is a clean tree. I've tried it numerous times and always download a new tree. I've even tried older trees as well as the 2 newer trees. > Why do I think that?

MSYS is the last item in my PATH statement, so I don't where it could be coming from if that's the case. So to summarize: 1. Each time I try a new build I download a new fltk tree, even trying different versions. 2. I use Windows XP. 3. I have a clean Mingw build with the latest stable version. 4. I use the msys shell and follow the suggested procedure outlined the the article at: http://www.fltk.org/articles.php?L598 That's about it , I think. _______________________________________________ fltk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk
