I must admit that I did not use any other API except the Windows API, but I really cannot imagine that using an API can be hard in any case. I think with a little bit work, this 'problem' can be solved very easily. Sadly I have no time to have a look at this, but maybe in the future!

You can definitely use the API for this ; APIs are EXACTLY for such cases ('Application Programming Interface')

I'm not a total noob in coding I know Delphi, a little bit C++ and Java, so I would have a look at this service you'r talking about
