Yes, it does. To start, you should build the current development
sources of Octave and run
__init_fltk__ ();
set (gcf (), "__backend__", "fltk");
sombrero ();
Oops. This doesn't work at all now, though it should. So we could
use some help just finding out why this is broken now. Instead of
taking off on yet another massive independent graphics project for
Octave, it would help to have some more people who are working
together to improve what we already have.
