Snippet

'That DirectUI is a Windows API is shown by the presence of formal internal documentation in the form of web pages, marked “Internal Only”'

'Microsoft’s source code also uses the term “undocumented API,” e.g. folder.c (SHGetSpecialFolderPath) and drawicon.'

'A number of Microsoft ex-employees and certified developers have referred to much of Microsoft’s formal documentation as “undocumentation”'
