Double buffering in Screens is quite doable and intuitionable. However
dblbfrng windows is not quite so easy. It can be done though by
setting up your own RastPort where you do the rendering and then
blitting the result into the window, hopefully there will not be much
video tear. The problem with double buffering windows is that you
have to convince all the other applications with windows to cooperate
with your 2bfering antics.
