That's interesting. Turns out there's a lot in there that closely 
matches my own style. Except for the naming convention! For which I do 
favor CamelCase for all identifiers, and as the Window_SetText() example 
you gave, I also use underscores to indicate hierarchical structure.

And for types, I suffix them with '_t' as the C standard does.
