Hi Peter:
Thanks for your suggestions.  I installed FLTK using Fink, but when i 
try to compile XPP, I am receiving an error message.  Everything is 
fine when I type the ./configure command.  But, when I type "make", the 
terminal simply scrolls up two three pages quickly, and shows the 
following error on the last screen.

> mainwindow.cxx:1367: syntax error before `->' token
> mainwindow.cxx:1369: syntax error before `->' token
> make: *** [mainwindow.o] Error 1

I wrote to Till, but haven't heard from him.  This is probably the 
wrong place to ask this question, but since you are an expert at this i 
thought I might ask. I am a Mac user.

Thanks
Sunil
