Win32 raw API

Direct access to the Win32 API

DESCRIPTION

The Windows API may be directly accessed by Tcl commands that map to Windows functions. This interface is not documented in the TWAPI documentation. Refer to the Microsoft Windows SDK for a description of the functions and parameters.

It is recommended that the higher level documented TWAPI Tcl functions be used instead. These provide an easier and more flexible interface in addition to hiding platform-specific differences.
