  How come the create function in windows does not pass all 12 parameters
  in the win32lib. This is going to come back to haunt you.
  If you want to impliment new advance features in the library that use
  these extra parameters then you have to go around the Create function with
  the CreateWindow function that you have made non-standard by remapping it
  to the CreateWindowExA ( I understand that they are the same except for
  the extended styles ) but this is going to confuse users when they try
  to use library functions using some code from a windows book. The next
  problem if you can't use the create function then the user has to write
  all the message handling routines because if you use CreateWindow
  function then you can't use onEvent. This means that there can't be
  any connection between a window defined with Create and a window defined
  with CreateWindow without alot of extra coding.
