Microsoft sells a Windows Development system for thier Windows
enviorment.  From what I have seen of the calling system for the
package, it is very simple to use and very powerful.  There are a few
public domain programs written for Windows that come with sources.
Unfortunately, one must have the Windows interface libraries to link the
program.  The only problem with the Windows Development System is that
it costs ~$500.  (Of course a real serious programmer can make this up
in sales, but not a hacker.)
