A Couple of Wimp Issues

[Steve Fryatt]

There are a couple of curiosities in the Wimp definitions which I've
stumbled across recently.

1) Wimp_IconESG is still defined as 5 bits (16 to 20), when it has only been
bits 16 to 19 since 1994. There's the "new" Wimp_IconNumeric flag using bit
20 to add in, too.

This seems relatively uncontroversial, so for something possibly less so...

2) Under the comment "Various Windows", there's

  Wimp_NoIcon = Wimp_W: -1;

which has me puzzled. It would make more sense (to me) if it were

  Wimp_NoIcon = Wimp_I: -1;

and in the next section of the file, as it would then provide an alternative
meaningful name for Wimp_IconWindow in different contexts. I've often used
Wimp_IconWindow in code when I really meant "No Icon".

Am I correct in thinking that this is a typo, or have I failed to spot what
Wimp_NoIcon's purpose is as Wimp_W?
