create windows service without vs.net

[Loane Sharp]

Hi there

I'm using VS.NET 2003 to create a Windows Service, but I would like to know
more about the guts of the thing (call me old-fashioned). Do you know of a
reference that will show me how to create the service programatically
without using VS? It's probably a pain with all the classes and stuff!

Best regards
Loane

If you don't wan't to use VS *at all*, then just use Notepad, Vim, or
whatever, and call the approiate compiler from the command line.
