Hi,
try using getModuleHandle -- see the graphical Win32 "Hello, World"
example available via the ghc-win32 homepage,
http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~sof/ghc-win32.html
It demos how to use it.
As you've gathered, there's no separate user doc for the Win32 library.
Consult any Win32 programming text (e.g., Petzold) for API details.
