In my Win32 shell, its designed to print results from any task. Makes it a native Windows program and looks better than a console project.
So far...
LRESULT CALLBACK WndProc (HWND hwnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) {...}is now well past 1000 lines of code to handle all possible events needed to be able to scroll up and down, wheel mouse and even two finger drag with a touch screen
never bothered with horizontal stuff as TextOut is easily over 132 columns which is more than needed for any print outs
one technique I like, is the embedded argument.
SetScrollRange (hwnd, SB_VERT, 0, activelist.size()*rowheight, TRUE);
this way the result is still on the stack ready for the windows call
sometimes such calls can spawn a monstrous amount of code depending on the number of arguments etc.
so it pays to keep everything on the stack and not have to move stuff on and off all the time
