Great idea! My girlfriend has them on her house, but they were custom built when they constructed their home, as they brought the window doors home from Europe.
Here are some "sort of" instructions.

Since they do make them commercially, I would go to a door store that has displays and exemplars and take a good look, take photos surreptitiously if necessary, to see how they are constructed. Then go home and make your own.
This is not what you are asking for per se, but have you thought of using retractable screens? there are more brands now, and they don't all snap back really hard anymore.
