Oh wait, I see you've now switched to using a file chooser
instead of your own browser.
In which case after creating the window, instead of using
New->Browsers->Browser, you would use New -> Browsers -> File Browser.
This way the #include will be done for you automatically.
However, if you really want to code the stuff manually,
then you should probably use 'New -> Code' and type in the
lines of code you want, the new Fl_Window, the new Fl_File_Chooser,
and be sure to add the #include files for the widgets you're using.
For instance, to #include <Fl_File_Chooser.H>, you would use
New -> Code -> Declaration:, and type "#include <Fl_File_Chooser.H>"
at that prompt, then move the declaration using the F2/F3 keys to move it
up/down the fluid hierarchy to position it towards the top.
I'd recommend you first do small experiments in fluid before
trying to reach your goal. Do a small fluid app that has two
windows each with a button, where one has a button that turns
on the other window, and the button in that new window hides it.
Once you have the basics down, you should be able to work upwards
to a more complicated app that has multiple windows each with
multiple widgets.
