After writing a program to convert the constants and comments to
Euphoria (I was going to do the types and functions after I got this
working), I noticed that Microsoft was very sloppy with their constant
declarations - many constants depend on other constants that they define
later, and I fixed these. The main problem is that they give constants
with the same name different values. KEY_EXECUTE is defined as 0 first,
then defined as 1.
 I was hoping to write an include file so one could just include the file
and not search for constants and copy them etc., but the file doesn't
work at the moment because of the multiple declartions. Shall I continue this
by renaming the constants, or continue with the multiple definitions and
figure the user will figure out which constant they should use.
