no, unfortunately it's not there.
it's fairly big, and it would make little sense to rewrite it, it's in the
original API documentation from Microsoft.
but if I copy it and paste it here, I'm afraid they'll put me in jail ;-)
and then there's the additional pain of converting the constants to their
numerical value; this is something that still puzzles me a little.
Question to the list: it is a Good Thing to export the thousands of
constants in the WINUSER and WINGDI include files? it would surely help
C programmers that are already familiar with those constants, but it is
worth the going?
BTW, regarding GetSystemMetrics(), if you care about my freedom :-)
you can search it on M$'s site, docs should be available somewhere there...
