Xfig and printer

Lorenzo,

The keyboard isn't disabled, as far as I know.  I have had problems with 
xfig being finicky regarding keyboard focus in various dialogs.  Just 
try cliking the mouse in a few more places around where the text caret 
is... you won't get a visual indication that the keyboard focus is in 
that field, but you will be able to type eventually.  xfig has a 
terrible interface, get used to it.
