Obviously the fullscreen toggle can be implemented by SFML end-user easily with Window.Create... But I'm not sure how to handle minimizing. (Useful for fullscreen windows when hitting Alt+Tab)

Isn't it done automatically by the OS?

Nope, not here; on w32: yes.

When in fullscreen the app gets like an 'exclusive' WM lock.. Other normal WM key commands don't have any effect such as Alt+Tab, or Alt+F4, etc.

On w32, Alt+Tab, Alt+F4, the 'start menu' key, and etc all still work so the app doesn't have such an 'exclusive' lock.

Laurent, is it possible that you do something with this, especially iconify thing?

I won't be able to work on this soon, but I'll look into it one day
