WM_SYSCOMMAND
usCmd = (USHORT) SHORT1FROMMP(mp1);       /* command value */
fsSource = (USHORT) SHORT1FROMMP(mp2);    /* source type   */
fPointer = (BOOL) SHORT2FROMMP(mp2);      /* pointer flag  */
 
The WM_SYSCOMMAND message is sent when a control window has a command to
report to its owner or when a keystroke has been translated by an
accelerator table into a WM_SYSCOMMAND message. Typically, a WM_SYSCOMMAND
message is sent when the user selects an item from the system menu.
