I recently looked at the various options to add some charting to an FLTK
application and decided to go with one of the added FLTK widgets as
opposed to calling out to an external program. The two that seemed to
make the most sense were the two mentioned above.

I received compiler errors when trying to build Fl_PlotXY. These errors
were casting related, so they may be related to gcc version differences
and easy to fix. But noticing that the last update to the library was 4
years ago, I didn't pursue fixing the errors and continued my search.

The Cartesian library worked great. Its implementation is contained in a
single pair of source files.  For the example test program, these two
files are accessed via simple #includes, but for my purposes, I'll build
an actual library and link to it.

If you decide to use this library, I'd suggest experimenting with the
example program for a while. I was able to get very different output
depending on the methods/properties I used.  Cartesian has a lot of
versatility, but it's not all documented (yet) or used in the example
program.
