As Emmanuele indicated, windowing is not platform-agnostic; you will need to use whatever APIs given platform provides to do this, i.e., on an X-based system, you will need to use xlib and follow the ICCM (http://tronche.com/gui/x/icccm/) and the EWMH (http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/wm-spec-1.4.html) protocols.
