According to the documentation, the mark and position should be set to the end when the value of an input is set using either value(const char*,int) or value(const char *).  However the Fl_Input_::value functions call static_value, which has this at the end:
  
position(0, readonly() ? 0 : size()); 
  

This makes all of the text in an Fl_Input highlighted when it is set by the program.  I'm not sure if this is a documentation bug or a code bug.  The fix would be to call position(size()) at the end of static_value instead. 

The main problem I've encountered with this is when calling fl_file_chooser with a directory as the argument.  You have to click the mouse at the end of the input box before typing a filename, or else you will overwrite the directory.

Fixed in Subversion repository.

I fixed the code to do what's in the docs. Seems to make sense to me, particularly in the directory chooser.
