BOOL32 Arc
(
    HDC32 hdc,
    INT32 left,
    INT32 top,
    INT32 right,

DESCRIPTION
U16 array no Value 0  yend, y of endpoint  
1  xend, x of endpoint  
2  ystart, y of endpoint  
3 xstart, x of endpoint  
4 bottom, bottom of bounding box  
5 right, right of bounding box  
6 top, top of bounding box  
7 left, left of bounding box left, right, top and bottom are the extents of the ellipse of
which the arc is a part
xstart,ystart define a point from which you draw an imaginary line
between it and the center of the ellipse, where that line intersects the
ellipse is the starting part of the arc
xend,yend similiarly define the end of the arc.
This is quite different from how X, and other drawing lib's define an Arc,
and its somewhat awkward to convert from it to X's mechanism, see the
X bindings for libwmf for info on that.
