If function has two versions then name of the Unicode version ends in "W"
(Wide) and name of the non-Unicode version ends in "A" (Ansi)

API uses slightly different method for calling functions than FPC does,
so you need to tell the compiler that it has to generate special code.

Boolean variables takes 1 byte and can contain one of two values - True or False
Bool variables take 4 bytes and can contain any 32-bit integer - 0 means
False, any other value means True.
