FLTK is under the LGPL (with a strange exemption for static linking??!?), so
it seemed reasonable and proper to treat code like the Fltk .h files adapted
for tolua as also being under the LGPL.

How would having Lua-FLTK under the MIT license have an effect on you, given
the FLTK license?



It is the exceptions, which matter. As I have read them, they make it possible
to use FLTK in an application without the need to make everything DLL based
(on Windows) and without providing source code or object modules of the application
to the end user.

I want to avoid going into that process, so unless a very good reason comes up,
I am going to stay LGPL free in my code.
