[python-win32] WMI troubles!

[Lincoln Yeoh]

Hi,

Coincidentally I'm using the hotkey code from Tim's url and it works 
quite well.

But I'm not sure which is better:

user32.GetMessageA or user32.GetMessageW (along with the 
corresponding user32.DispatchMessageA or user32.DispatchMessageW of course).

Regards,

Link.
