Abstract
--------

In Microsoft Windows, the standard size of a window's title bar is based on
the size of the current system font and cannot be changed. Some
applications (for example, Microsoft Visual Basic and Microsoft Excel) have
toolboxes consisting of windows with smaller title bars. This article
describes how you can use the itsybitsy functions to implement small title
bars in windows.

The ItsyTest sample application demonstrates the use of the itsybitsy
functions.
