in thread How do I customize the win32 title bar or create my own in Perl way?

Find code written for the bare Win32 API, and load functions with Win32::API->Import, eg
Win32::API->Import( # http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644950%28VS.85%29.aspx user32=>'LRESULT SendMessage( HWND hWnd, UINT Msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam )');

    If he's using Win32::GUI, much of that code is already wrapped
      Win32::GUI is woefully incomplete. And the docs are worse. (But it's better than nothing.)

      Once I got familiar with it, I found it easier to grep METHOD *.xs and compare what was (partially) implemented there to MSDN than working off of examples that almost did what I wanted and docs that misled me. (Not that MSDN doesn't mislead, itself.)
