Eli, I am a little suprised here by your comments: it takes less than
5mins to install the package and compile one of included test programs
to show you a GUI etc. exactly as you mention above! Everything works
out of the box, gcc compiles the lot, and the rsxntdj package provides
the resource compiler, linker and pe converter. Everything which is
part of the win95api (except for dll's) can be used...
