The major change is that (mostly) the library works with widechar
unicode internally, and allows you to specify the encoding up front.
By default it is CP_ACP, but you can set it explicitly to UTF-8.
Running this in SciTE puts a little bit of Greek in the caption:
local W = require 'winapi'
W.set_encoding(W.CP_UTF8)
win = W.foreground_window()
win:set_text 'ελληνική'
There is a 'get_disk_network_name' function for finding out the UNC
name mapped to a particular drive.
As suggested, P:get_process_name(true) will give the full path of a
process; the default is just to give the exe name.
show_message is now generalized like so:
winapi.show_message("Message","stuff\nand nonsense","yes-no","warning")
Another change is that there is an explicit Thread object returned
from functions like winapi.timer, which supports suspend, resume and
kill methods.
