The documentation that comes with g77 doesn't contain anything on this, 
because it is outside the realm of the compiler and run-time library proper.

However, that said, Windows API basically describes how to invoke 
Windows functionality from a C point of view, so you would be helped 
with the chapter in the g77 documentation on calling C function.

Unfortunately, I cannot promise that you can call each and every Windows 
routine that way, as not all functionality in C function calls is 
supported from g77 (or Fortran in general).
