Tom,Thanks for the clarifying questions, since I had no clue what information John needs.
The answers:- I want my program to be dominating the entire display (i.e. to be on top of all other graphics). Maybe later on, I will like to be able to switch between being "inside a window" and being "on top of everything else", but for now, being on top of everything else will do just fine. - At present, I will not be changing the resolution (again, this will probably be added in the future).
- I will not do 3D stuff, videos might be possible.

Dirk (I expect) John has a spectrum of possible answers in mind, but many of them are wrong for your needs, and it would take him a long time to write them all down. Maybe you can help him pick the right answer by providing information like: Do you plan for other programs to be using the display? Is it OK for them to appear on top of your stuff, or do you want your stuff to completely dominate the display? Do you want to change the resolution when your program runs? Are you planning to do 3D stuff, or video?
