the fltk console app doesn't seem to handle window resizing events properly, in fact it doesn't even honor terminal events resulting from running "reset" in order to make the console adjust to the new window layout.

    it doesn't seem to accept the PASTE event either, i.e. you cannot easily paste text from the clipboard into the shell

    that's not really all that much of a problem, after all you are likely to simply use an ssh client or X client/VNC to connect to coLinux-on the other hand, the resizing events don't even seem to be honored in a running ssh client.

    I could verify that this problem persists even via SSH connections, so it really isn't specific to the FLTK console, rather it seems to affect most ncurses-based programs - i.e. resets and window dimension changes do affect the raw console output, but don't seem to affect many ncurses-based linux utilities.

    So, this is problably only a very small issue related to terminal handling/emulation.
