The use of Windows structures hasn't been too hard for me, but in the case
of the occassional unions in Windows, there are two names for the same
memory, depending on intended usage of the memory. What I've been doing is
simply arbitrarily naming the location with one or the other Windows name as
in the API docs. But then, I have to use my brain memory a lot to remember
which to really use when reading the API stuff and applying it to my code.
This is a little inelegant, and maybe if I put my mind to it, I could find a
better way. Is there a way to create synonyms inside (or outside) SwiftForth
classes or structs?
