## What can I do with this?

## Installing
```sh
npm install win32-api
```

## Usage

### DLL Wrapper

- [User32](./src/util/user32/index.user32.ts)
- [Winspool](./src/util/winspool/index.winspool.ts)

```ts
import {
FindWindow,
GetDefaultPrinter,
} from 'win32-api/util'

// Retrieves the printer name of the default printer for the current user on the local computer
const printerName = await GetDefaultPrinter()

const child = spawn('notepad.exe')
const hWnd = await FindWindowEx(0, 0, 'Notepad', null)
```
