For what it is worth, I like win2x, although win4x is a bit more unique, with
google giving 'win2x' 295 matches, but only 10 for 'win4x'.
On reflection, win2x also describes a bit more what it actually does.
I think the gdi names are a bit obscure for the less technical.
As mentioned previously, I'll help test, as I doubt I can help with the code.
