   I am porting a (simple) piece of code that I wrote for libgrx (and also 
   X/Motif) to rsxntdj/djgpp so that I can include a gui + run multiple 
   versions under windows95. It must be really fairly simple but because I 
   have never programmed for windows(95) before I am stuck now (I have a 
   basic framework running). 
   I realize it is slightly off-topic, but maybe someone can point me to 
   on-line resources on windows95 programming/win32 API, or a good reference 
   book that is useful for rsxntdj, or maybe someone can give me some help
   me out a little (see below for further details).

   Thanks,

   Leendert Combee (ps, please reply be email if possible)

    - I need to set up a rgb colormap 
    - I need to create a pixmaps of certain size
    - I need to draw points on the pixmap in colors from the colormap
    - I need to blit the pixmap to the main window (or, part of the main
       window)
    - I would like to let my program define te size of the main window
      and lock it (no resize possible). How do I do this?

    Partially, I have solved

    - setting up the main window, 
    - setting up a toolbar
    - linking a callback to certain keypresses or click on toolbar button

    However, 

    - How do I get a piece of text in a toolbar-button, how can I change
      this text dynamically or shade it (make button inactive)
    - How do I control the color of the toolbar, the color of each button,
      and the background of the
      mainwindow

    Thanks very much for any help or hints!
