1. win32lib -- create()
Hey...
create ( pControl, title, parent, x, y, cx, cy, flags )
can't find _any_ docs for 'flags' above. I need to see a list of these flags and
a description of what they control. I searched the win32lib 'Docs' directory
(grep-ed for WS_DLGFRAME, e.g.) -- no joy! Any clues where there is further docs?
TIA....

There are so many flags defined by Microsoft that I couldn't really do a good
job documenting them myself. I suggest you start with the MSDN library site. Here
are some good places to begin ...

One other place I have in my bookmarks is:
http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/appendix/GUIStyles.htm
If nothing else it should give you an idea of just how many there are, and hence
how many ways they could be combined...

In the collection of pags at http://euwiki.ayo.biz/Category:Win32lib
, you'll find, by control, a list of applicable flags. Those which apply to
all controls are in the "Styes that apply to windows" section somewhere.
I don't know if this is an exhaustive reference, it may lack accuracy
sometimes, but will give you an idea of what does what. As suggested already,
you should go to MSDN to get a supposedly reliable description. I can tell
you that the description leaves me puzzled about how to use it sometimes, not
often though.
Also take note that, on MSDN, style and extended style flags are always on
different pages.

Thanks again for the extra lead! I have NO excuse now not create my first
"widget" in Euphoria. However, it just dawned on me (duhhh) that if I want to
make this earth-shattering "widget" platform-independent, I had better use
something other than win32lib. L8r....

That's what wxEuphoria is for.
