+/*!
+This crate provides a smattering of safe routines for parts of winapi. The
+primary purpose of this crate is to serve as a dumping ground for various
+utility functions that make interactions with winapi safe. This permits the
+centralization of `unsafe` when dealing with Windows APIs, and thus makes it
+easier to audit.
+
+A key abstraction in this crate is the combination of the
+[`Handle`](struct.Handle.html)
+and
+[`HandleRef`](struct.HandleRef.html)
+types. Both represent a valid Windows handle to an I/O-like object, where
+`Handle` is owned (the resource is closed when the handle is dropped) and
+`HandleRef` is borrowed (the resource is not closed when the handle is
+dropped). Many of the routines in this crate work on handles and accept
+anything that can be safely converted into a `HandleRef`. This includes
+standard library types such as `File`, `Stdin`, `Stdout` and `Stderr`.
+
+Note that this crate is completely empty on non-Windows platforms.
