For the most part, using the APIs is pretty straight-forward if you have the required prototypes and structure definitions. With the possible exception of NtCreateProcess(), there is not a lot of "magic" involved. The MinGW project has done a lot of good work in this area. There also a ton of useful information in the MS DDK. The DDK is, obviously, focused on kernel-mode drivers, but much of the information is applicable to user-mode apps. So, unfortunately, I don't have a complete reference, but there are enough "islands of information" around for us to piece together everything we need.
