Well, its keyboard control is definitely patched together in an unusual way, so I'm not too surprised that it failed.

The file list is supposed to disappear in fullscreen, but I guess it's pointless if you lose the ability to navigate through them with the keyboard. I hope it reappears when you get out of fullscreen mode? One of the problems I had with using Fl_Window:fullscreen() was that the file list would reappear sometimes for some reason...it was being moved off the window (invisible but still accessible with the keyboard), but i think my window manager doesn't like that.

So I'm guessing both of those bugs may be related to shortcut keys. I seem to remember seeing someone create global hotkeys once, but I couldn't find anything about that in the docs. I think using global hotkeys should prevent any unexpected problems with focus.

EDIT: Oh...it was John Murga did it in one of his examples. I guess the global hotkeys are specific to Fl_Menu*. So I'm looking into that now.
