+ The project is built like a tool chest.
+ Individuals who are unfamiliar with the project should have an easier time trying out the pre-packaged <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/fll/files/FLL-0.6/0.6.10/monolithic/" class="link external">monolithic sources</a>.
+ These <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/fll/files/FLL-0.6/0.6.10/programs/" class="link external">programs</a>, by default, are designed to build against a library built using the monolithic source tree.
+ </p>
+ <p class="p">
+ The <strong class="strong">stand alone</strong> sources for the several programs can be found <a href="https://sourceforge.net/projects/fll/files/FLL-0.6/0.6.10/stand_alone/" class="link external">pre-packaged at Sourceforge</a>.
