This is a problem with Acqua and FLTK. I think it is a 10.5
issue (AFAIK it does not happen on 10.4). Perhaps Anthony
Kozar might be able to help you, since he has a 10.5 machine
and is doing the packages for it.

I have only done minimal testing of FLTK on 10.5, but IIRC it did work for
me.  The FLTK window always appears underneath my terminal window so that I
have to minimize the terminal before I can select the FLTK window.  I am
then able to select it and use it.

I will take another look though once I have new packages for 10.5 ready.  If
Darren could send me his CSD file, that would be helpful.  I will also try
to look into changing the code so that the FLTK window appears on top and
receives focus immediately.
