- FYI, a list of supported (and unspported) WIN32 API Calls in WIN32s is
- available from ftp.uu.net in /vendor/microsoft/compuserve-lib/mswin32/1.
- The files are win32s.xls (Excel format) or win32s.csv (comma-delimited).
- I am using these files on a daily basis for WIN32s development. You'll
- find them also on CI$ in Library 1 of the MSWIN32 forum.
