Procs

proc `&`[T](x: var T): ptr T {.inline.}: Use & as in C/C++ to get the address of anything.

converter winimConverterBooleanToBOOL(x: bool): BOOL {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Converts between Windows' BOOL/WINBOOL and Nim's Boolean type.
converter winimConverterBOOLToBoolean(x: BOOL): bool {....raises: [], tags: [], forbids: [].}: Converts between Windows' BOOL/WINBOOL and Nim's Boolean type.
converter winimConverterVarObjectToPtrObject[T: object](x: var T): ptr T: Pass an object by address if the target is "ptr object". For example:
var msg: MSG while GetMessage(msg, 0, 0, 0) != 0: TranslateMessage(msg) DispatchMessage(msg)

template `&`(x: object): ptr type(x): Use & to get a pointer for a const object. For example:
# pUk is "ptr IUnknown" for some object var pDisp: ptr IDispatch pUk.QueryInterface(&IID_IDispatch, &pDisp)
