Hi Bernie,

   I looked at it before when you released it.

   First of all, try doing a search for DLL or wrapper in the archives. 
Does it say anything about your library? I am not about to spend the 
time to look at every file in the archives to see if what I need is 
there.

   My hope is that I can create some libraries for the archives, even IF 
they are already available, that will be more accurately described, and 
hopefully easier to use.

   Second, your implementation seemed difficult to use, and I didn't 
find any demos of how it works.

   Third, you library is shrouded. I put in my junk pile the same day I 
dl'd it. No offense to you, but I don't like the idea of not sharing my 
code. It makes it 20 times more difficult to understand what it is the 
library is supposed to do.

   Four, I'm hoping that my library will be a stepping stone towards the 
creation, distribution, and sharing of wrapper libraries. How many 
people have spent the time to write a partial wrapper for win32, but 
didn't bother to share it with the rest of us?
