I'm just starting to look at compilers and windows programming (for myself).
One thing that struck me was that Borland appears to have added a non-standard 
C++ extension, to bind messages to member functions (the "= [WM_FIRST + mesage]"
construct).  It seems like a nifty idea, but if you use it, doesn't it lock
you into buying compilers from Borland?  

As I said, I'm just getting started, and it's difficult making my way through
all the documentation.  So it's possible I've got this wrong.
