OK.  I'll probably post some other bug fixes later today, too. getPrinter
wasn't working--thanks to Judith Evans for that one.  Also I've got combo
boxes correctly working with tab stops.

As far as documentation goes, I'd say that a windows programming FAQ (with
win32lib) would be a great idea.  I haven't looked at them, but Wolfgang's
tutorials are probably a good place to start.  Even though (IMHO) win32lib
is a great high level library to insulate the programmer from the win32 api
(sort of like MFC for Euphoria).  But, to code in windows, you still need to
understand the basics of how things work--the same goes for DOS or Linux, of
course.  I don't think that this belongs in the win32lib docs proper.  That
should be reserved for documentation on using the library (the win32lib api,
if you will :)--it's pretty big as it is.
