What in unix is used as filedescriptor is in general in windows used as 
handle (filehandle/sockethandle)

Googling for "windows msdn stdin" resulted in:

I've no clue why a lib should need this (and if a non console app would 
have any)


BTW, back to your original question, I looked at the docs for 
mpg123_open_fd() but it absolutely clueless about the second argument
