Windows API design

[frankly]

Oh actually I don't want console hehe, I want an application window...like the one we're using here. "Microsoft look"
Bcoz apart from those input and ouputs I want some buttons there. And yse I mentioned printf bcoz I wrote the console proram. I think I'll simply replace all those printf with TextOut

But I don't know how to deal with the inputs...

And pipes...what are they for? Actually I have those two stevens book on UNIX programming, I have read some little on pipes. But how can I use it here?

I know what I want to do now but I'm not quite sure how should I do it...hope you can give me some guidlines

Thans really!!

[edit] pipes are for two parties to communicate
one writes to a pipe amd the other reads from the pipe
so...which are the two parties concerned here?
