Mac OS 8 Window Manager Reference

GetAuxWin

Obtains a handle to a window's auxiliary window structure. When the Appearance Manager is available and you are using standard windows, most of the fields of the auxiliary window structure are ignored and the GetAuxWin function is not recommended. In the future, standard system windows may not have entries in the auxiliary window list. If you are creating your own window definition function, GetAuxWin can still be used.

SetWinColor

Sets a window color table. When the Appearance Manager is available and your application uses standard windows, the SetWinColor function is not recommended. SetWinColor sets a window color table structure that is now mostly ignored. Only the part identifier constant wContentColor in the value field of the ColorSpec structure is used. This constant produces the background color for the window's content region. Under Appearance, instead of the SetWinColor function, the window definition function determines what colors it will use.

If your are creating your own custom window definition functions, SetWinColor can still be used.
