What's the actual difference between those two? I want to know when some event occurs, the information is sent to FLTK window, Which has two version of handle() and handle(int x) (I'm not even sure what they do, just know they get/set the events). I am also not sure that every widget also got

What's the actual difference between those two? I'm having trouble understanding what it is that you are asking. handle() and callback() are very different beasts indeed. The handle() methods are used by the underlying fltk/OS system to propagate and handle window events (for the most part)
