Looks good, here are my comments from running samples using Windows 2000:

1. Don't complicate things with compressed win32lib.ew and win32lib_full.ew.
Come on, does it really work any faster?

2. In clock.exw when I put mouse over that clock tooltip it shows hourglas mouse
cursor. It turns into normal cursor only when I click onto that tooltip. And if
you click somewhere else that clock tooltip disappears but program is still
running and you can't close it except in Task manager.

3.projectiles.exw: I pressed Fire!! and nothing happened. Default settings
should be set up so that you see something happen without changing settings.

4. In a lot of samples controls are too small, like with edit boxes and then
cursor is too big for it and it doesn't look good. Same is with a lot of buttons
which have some text which is too long or too high for its button. Maybe this
depends on what screen resolution you have.

5. Files Rclick.exw and RtClick.exw are same. I checked them with ExamDiff
(great little proggie, thanks Martin for link) and they are same.

6. special.exw: I can't do anything with it. It would be logical that text would
be white cause text box background is black, but it doesn't show anything when I
type into that text box.

7. Tooltip2.EXW fails: error code 461, Failed to acquire a hWnd when creating a
control, ran it more times allways same.

8. These samples: STYLES.EXW, STYLES6.EXW and Wstyles.EXW seem to show the same
thing, why 3 of them when there could only be one?

9. sample.exw is really unsafe! First time it crashed after running a while with
writing ex.err. The second time it really messed up my desktop, everything was
white, and I thought I will have to reboot and lose this message which was open.
It happened when radio button was selected which causes buttons to change color.
I couldn't even bring up task manager to kill it. Then after about two minutes it
went back to normal, don't know why.
