Short answer: thousands of inscrutable calls to Windows internals.

Longer answer: There are lots of (thick) books available, as well as
the API documentation available on Borland's website. Plus an
unknown number of "undocumented" calls kept secret by Micro$oft.

I have one book on the Win API - 1098 pages, but it's just an overview,
not enough details to get all the calls to work.

BTW: it does no good to try to view these DLL's, it's all machine code.
