19  * Windows Copyright Microsoft Corporation.
20  * \par
21  * Access to the AVI format uses Windows AVIFile library. Available in Windows Only. \n
22  * When writing a new file you must use an ".avi" extension, or the Windows API will fail. \n
23  * You must link the application with "im_avi.lib" 
24  * and you must call the function \ref imFormatRegisterAVI once 
25  * to register the format into the IM core library. 
26  * In Lua call require"imlua_avi". \n
27  * Depends also on the VFW library (vfw32.lib).
28  * When using the "im_avi.dll" this extra library is not necessary. \n
29  * If using Cygwin or MingW must link with "-lvfw32". 
30  * Old versions of Cygwin and MingW use the "-lvfw_ms32" and "-lvfw_avi32".
