Greetings all:
        Whant I am looking for is a C++ shell that would show me how to
start a paint thread at program startup, include a semaphore to allow the
thread to kill itself, and how to post a message to the thread to paint the
window. The examples that come with Visual Age C++ include a great deal of
other code and it is hard to extract the code I need. And I would thing
because of the need to put the paint routine in a separate thread, that
there would be more source code available. There is almost no source
availabel to show how to use the painthandler and paintevent objects. I
guess to a programmer with more C++ experience this is trivial, but to me
it is not. I would be grateful for any help and source code.

        Thanks
