what I'm doing

[Holger Schroeder]

hey, feel free to do what you want, i am quite sure you are a better 
windows programmer than i am,
you wonīt "piss me off" by fixing the ugly parts in what i coded ;-)

i am quite happy to have someone helping on this, who know what he is 
doing :-)

i am mainly here sitting in front of my computer, and working through 
the different chapters of
the "programming windows" book of charles petzold, and trying to put the 
stuff i read there into
a working state in the *_win32 files. i think we donīt duplicate work 
here, as we are working on
different areas in the same files. i have tried to get message passing 
working, it is not that important
to me, from which function this stuff is called.

i wouldnīt have expected, that this progresses so fast, i am fiddling 
around with this for less than
three months, and we are almost there :-)
