I'd like to retrieve the command line arguments for a GUI application.  I
have seen the GetCommandLine() method and the CommandLineToArgvW method but
what in the world is this return type "LPWSTR" and what is this parameter
"LPCWSSTR"?

Can anyone tell me how in the world I use this to convert the result of the
GetCommandLine argument into a standard char* argv[]?

Thanks!!!
