Oh, thanks ;-) It really doesn't look too complicated though. It's
still probably going to take a while until I can finish it, because I
also have some other things to get done right now.

Meanwhile I should probably also think about which HWND to pass to
the SetCooperativeLevel function ;-) maybe just some invisible dummy
window? I'm not sure whether I can rely on anything else.

As you said, the buffering is probably the hardest part (at least
getting it done well) I will probably start off with a simple
implementation (so it at least works) and then see how well it works
and fine-tune it later if necessary.
