Chapter 22 // Exercise 15 - Principles & Practice Using C++

In this exercise I am using Visual Studio 2019 and a modified version of the std_lib_facilities header found here.

Chapter 22 // Exercise 15

Write a program that, given a file of (name, year) pairs, such as (Algol,1960) and (C,1974), graphs the names on a timeline.

I finally did this exercise after much procrastination. I also hate Bjarne because the scattergraph class I made back in chapter whatever doesn't exactly fit this example.

Instead of continuing to procrastinate I decided to hack it together one night....it's not exactly a timeline but well I guess it is. There is a line and there are times...done.

I had a look for rotated text in FLTK and it looks like it's just been implemented in 1.3.8, which was released last month. I'm still on 1.3.7 but I'll update at some point as that would've made this much easier.
