Sorry if i make silly questions Bert but... what does he mean by
> You must  return 1 from your window procedure

Which exactly is the window procedure (the DefWindowProc?) ?
How can i handle it to return 1?
Should i check the message wParam in recordKeyboardEvent(MSG *msg) and if it 
is UNICODE_NOCHAR (0xFFFF) then i should make it (recordKeyboardEvent) 
return 1 only for that time? And after that i should get WM_UNICHAR 
messages?

Christos.
