Clownacy ac465d29b4 Mean CMake dependency overhaul
I'm taking a page from Dolphin's book, and including copies of each
dependency's source code. This combines the ease of use of including
pre-built libraries instead of needing to navigate a package manager
 - as is (or was) the case for MSVC - with the portability of using
packages. Granted, this method's more of a jack of all trades,
master of none, since it's *less* user-friendly than prebuilt
packages (compilation times), and you don't get the per-distro
compatibility fixes you'd get from a package manager.

You can still use system libs if you want. In fact, it's still the
default behaviour: compiling the libs manually is just a fallback.
I'll add an option to force-enable this soon, however, since it's a
nicer way to produce static MSYS2 builds than the hackish nightmare
that I was using before. Not to mention, having my own copy of the
sources means I can provide my own fixes and tweaks your package
manager may not. For example, I can combine MSYS2's FreeType
subpixel rendering with vcpkg's fix for SDL2 exporting its symbols
in static builds.

.TH checkers 6 "FLTK Checkers" "15 January 2006"
.SH NAME
checkers \- the fltk checkers game
.sp
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fICheckers\fR is a FLTK-based version of the game of checkers.
The game is played on an 8x8 board with each player starting with
12 pieces or "checkers" on opposite sides of the board. The
computer plays the white checkers in this version of the game.
.LP
The object of the game is to remove all of your opponents pieces.
Players move one of their pieces diagonally forward on each move,
either a single space or by "jumping" an adjacent piece. Your
opponents pieces are removed by jumping them - you can make
multiple jumps in a single turn.
.LP
If a piece reaches the other side of the board, it is converted
to a "king" which can move both forwards and backwards.
