IIRC it's alt+1 not alt+F1 - and you can only switch to one workspace
(1) and back to the repl. However, the windows version should be enough
for doing a workshop, and getting decent games working too. 

Of course all their games will also work on Linux and OSX.

The reason for this wierdness with the keys is GLUT - I can try
compiling it against another version if it's a problem. 

The other thing you'll want fixing eventually is the OpenAL sound, which
is building and running on windows, but failing to open the device for
sound at startup (I think).

cheers,

dave
