Thanks to Greg Phillips and David Guy for the correct value of CLR_INVALID.

I've posted the latest bleeding edge of Win32Lib v0.45l at:

   http:/www.lanset.com/dcuny/win32.htm

The main feature include:

1. Fixed the Tooltips resource leak. This turned out to be a more general
bug that happened when writing to the Screen. A number of corrections were
made to the code. There might have been a leak using Printer as well; I've
patched it there as well.

2. Fixed the TabControl. The main problem was that the TabControl needed to
handle WM_COMMAND messages, and I assumed that only Windows received them.
All the subclassed controls now get their own proper callback, instead of
piggybacking off WndProc.

3. The Window background color is COLOR_BTNFACE. You can still set the color
of the window with setWindowBackColor to get the 'classic' white color (see
EX18.EXW for an example). Combined with the new 3D look of the controls, it
looks a bit more professional.

I still haven't solved the problem of launching an application with
system_exec().

As always, bug reports are appreciated. Hopefully, it'll be stable enough to
post to the Euphoria site soon.

Thanks!
