In the win32lib docs, under the 'Events' topic, you can find details about
w32HPaint.

Basically though, this gets triggered whenever Windows decides that your
control needs to be redrawn. This usually happens when another control has
been on top of it and has now been moved away, thus 'revealing' this
control. Mostly, Windows handles the redrawing of normal controls, but some
controls need you help. Commonly, you would do this if you have been drawing
or writing directly onto the Window background area.

For details about other events, look in the win32lib docs and if that
doesn't help, let me know so I can improve them.
