Things get simpler if you accept the need to create new threads on Woe32. Another example of this is that if you want to handle Ctrl-C gracefully (i.e. do something particular but not kill the program), you need to create threads. Threads are a new API you have to learn the first time you use it. But they are a basic part of Woe32. And of BeOS as well, by the way: on BeOS, socket functions like recv() and send() are implemented through an extra thread.
