I put this in the ctmswgui and it seems to work.

from ctypes import CDLL, _DLLS, _DynFunction, CFunction, c_string,
Structure, WinError, byref

class WinDLLA(CDLL):
        def __getattr__(self, name):
                try:
                        func = _DynFunction(name, self)
                except:
                        func = _DynFunction(name+'A', self)
                setattr(self, name, func)
                return func
windll = _DLLS(WinDLLA)


If I was a bit cleverer I guess the 'A' could be part of the class setup
and that would allow us to change the default fairly easily.

Now that Python has unicode I suppose the possibility exists of having
both 'A' and 'W' calls required. I'm too lazy to do anything right now.

I'll check in the ctmswgui thing for others to poke at.
