If you can't get a book,
and you want api calls, you can check out Jan-Jaap's web page for
an old win32 help file from M$ which contains an early win32 api set of
documentation which may have some errors, but will be a start.

Check out win32 sources, there are a few around the net. Petzold's
examples are out there from win3.1

gcc -c csource.c        ->csource.o
windres res.rc res.o  ->file.o
gcc -o projname csource.o file.o -luser32 -lgdi32
-Wl,--subsystem,windows
