A question about 'Makefile'(s)!!
OK, I am so confused about this that I will take it from the top.
I am not an expert when it comes to writing make files, and most of the 
time I don't have to worry about them. However, recently I have had the 
need to add a GUI interface to a program. I am not sure if I'll go with 
"wxWindows", "FOX" or "FLTK". While I am reading about the pro and cons 
that each of the GUI packages have I am wondering what flags I should 
use for each of these libraries, the location of the GUI library in the 
File System. By flags I mean flags like '-lsocket', '-lmpr', etc.

Now, if I decide to go with, for instance, FOX, what would be the flag I 
have to add to the Make file? most importantly, how does one know what 
is the flag that different libraries use.

Thanks in advance.
