* Introduction

This module provides rather incomplete and experimental interface to
OLE Automation.

* Motivation

- Use CLisp for OLE Automation.

- Thank and contribute to GNU.

- Learn more about Lisp.

- Learn about OLE Automation.

* Platform

Developed on Cygwin, GNU CLISP 2.34, GNU C 3.4.4

* TODO

Important:

1) Add error handling.

2) Check for memory leaks and do resource management properly
   especially on errors!

3) Add other IDispatch methods.

4) Build more OLE classes and methods on top of the low level
   interface.

5) Replace RAW parameter of OLE:INVOKE by something like
   :default-idispatch-class?

Minor:

5) Use c-struct for variant type instead of c-pointer and
   getter/setter C functions.

6) wstring->string conversion: inverse function to with-foreign-string
   to replace WideCharToMultiByte() in bstr2lisp?
