Ok I managed to recompile FLTK 1.3.4 and recompile TCs FLWM against these libs on my TinyCore 5.4. But I have other dependencies like xprogs and wbar that still need the old fltk1.1.10. So I have to versions of fltk. I would like to try maybe to compile an older source of FLMW that is compiltable with FLTK 1.1.10. Anyone know where I can find it?

It's all in the git history. If you have a git clone, you can check out different versions with git commands. If you downloaded a zip/tgz from github, you can do that for the old versions too - click on "27 commits", on the commit you want click the "<>" on the right, then download the zip like you did before.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

orms.so.1.3 /usr/local/lib/libfltk.so.1.3  -o ./../new_flwm_topside -DTOPSIDE *.C $CXXFLAGS $LDFLAGS
The error...
Code: [Select]

Hi Rich,
Thank you very much for the hit...
Only adding "-lX11" to command has not worked.
Following command worked for me..
Code: [Select]
g++ -flto -fuse-linker-plugin -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -Os -pipe -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti /usr/local/lib/libfltk_images.so.1.3 /usr/local/lib/libfltk_forms.so.1.3 /usr/local/lib/libfltk.so.1.3 /usr/local/lib/libX11.so.6.3.0  -o ./../new_flwm_topside -DTOPSIDE *.C $CXXFLAGS $LDFLAGS
and this also worked
Code: [Select]
g++ -flto -fuse-linker-plugin -march=i486 -mtune=i686 -Os -pipe -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti /usr/local/lib/libfltk_images.so.1.3 /usr/local/lib/libfltk_forms.so.1.3 /usr/local/lib/libfltk.so.1.3 -lX11  -o ./../new_flwm_topside -DTOPSIDE *.C $CXXFLAGS $LDFLAGS
The new "flwm_topside" is working fine with modified "./flwm/config.h" as
Code: [Select]
#define DESKTOP 0
But when "./flwm/config.h" is modified as (either or both)..
Code: [Select]
#define WMX_MENU_ITEMS 0
#define XTERM_MENU_ITEM 0
Result: no title bar on GUI windows.
Also, may I ask how to disable "Ctrl+Esc" for closing/terminating GUI apps.
