how to launch rdesktop
when i try to launch rdesktop with the dmenu, nothing happens. when i launch it from a terminal, it seems to ignore all the keys, like fullscreen, and float toggle. how do i get rdesktop to launch fullscreen?

-f should do it.
rdesktop mywinbox -f
To toggle fullscreen press [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [Enter].

I personally created a bash file (named jHome) and put the following contents in it:
#!/bin/bash
rdesktop -g 95% ipaddress:port
The -g option makes it so it automatically fills 95% of the screen (which is about perfect for i3).
Then made it executable and put it in my PATH. Then I just hit meta+d, type 'jH' and enter and away it goes. I understand that's not fullscreen, but it takes up most of the screen and allows me to switch between desktops in i3 as well.
I have not had any real issues opening/operating rdesktop,
