I second David's message about keeping win32lib as simple as possible, and
doing great documentation. I would be very happy to assist.

For example, I discovered on my own that one could create a sequence of
controls - it may be in the documents somewhere, but it is certainly
critical for a lot of programming needs.

I'm an old-school, assembly-language programmer (I've written a number of
compilers and real-time systems) who has also avoided windows programming
like the devil until I came upon Euphoria. Now I'm happy.

I actually have been impressed with the overall Euphoria documentation, and
suggest we keep our efforts in a similar layout design philosophy.

A good philosophy might be to keep in mind HTML. HTML is actually the most
widely used windows programming environment in the world, and many people
are now familiar with its constructs. So it might be useful to aim our
educational efforts at people who have some familiarity with HTML.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a place to start? Would a good
"introduction to basic concepts of windows programming" be the appropriate
place to start?
