2.1.5 Switching between windowed and fullscreen modes
=====================================

C++ : static void TCODConsole::setFullscreen(bool fullscreen)
C   : void TCOD_console_set_fullscreen(bool fullscreen)
Py  : console_set_fullscreen(fullscreen)

This function switches the root console to fullscreen or windowed mode.

Parameter	Description
fullscreen	true to switch to fullscreen mode. false to switch to windowed mode.

Note that there is no predefined key combination to switch to/from fullscreen. You have to do this in your own code.
Example for an Alt-Enter combination :

C++ : TCOD_key_t key=TCODConsole::checkForKeypress();
      if ( key.vk == TCODK_ENTER && key.lalt ) TCODConsole::setFullscreen(!TCODConsole::isFullscreen());
C   : TCOD_key_t key=TCOD_console_check_for_keypress();
      if ( key.vk == TCODK_ENTER && key.lalt ) TCOD_console_set_fullscreen(!TCOD_console_is_fullscreen());
Py  : key=libtcod.console_check_for_keypress()
      if key.vk == libtcod.KEY_ENTER and key.lalt : libtcod.console_set_fullscreen(not libtcod.console_is_fullscreen())
