Heh. The point rizzix is making is that most programming languages don't use a a run window for everything. Text only programs are run through the command line. If you want graphics, you have to use a graphics library (such as SDL, GTK+, Fox, OpenGL...). This means that you'll be using these libraries to create your run window. So, any programming language that uses external graphics libraries can probably create full screen windows, provided those libraries that can do this have the necessary bindings for that language in question. |

This is exactly my problem with teaching Turing as a first language. People get accustomed to unrealistic situations. |

That's not fullscreen, that's a maximized window. |

Furthermore, that's Turing-only; SuperFreak82 was asking about languages in general. How I wish we had a karma system at this moment. |

I think you mean the black card system. 
Anyway, the real answer to this topic is basically any language other than Turing.  |
