I do not redraw windows, I just save the rectangular image and
re-display that at the new location. Simpler and faster, I thought.
But, of course, off-screen pixels are undefined. Typically a bunch of
zero, I suppose, and I finish with a black egg on my face, so to
speak. I am open to any reasonable suggestion...

No second chances, mate, as my Australian cousins would say. Isn't
that the American way now too?

Never noticed. I do not watch Windows much. I'll fix it.

Thanks, David. Last night I almost finished a rewrite, but then,
unwisely, got bogged down in file selector redesign, and that might
take a session or two. It will not be probably finished before Sunday,
because I have to escort my wife to a concert tonight and I have
evening tennis on Fridays.
