Deal with Windows Registry from Nim.

import winregistry

var
  faceName: string
  fontSize: int32
  fontWeight: int32
  h: RegHandle

try:
  h = open("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Console\\Git Bash", samRead)
  faceName = h.readString("FaceName")
  fontSize = h.readInt32("FontSize")
  fontWeight = h.readInt32("FontWeight")
except OSError:
  echo "err: ", getCurrentExceptionMsg()
finally:
  close(h)

Tests

Run in command line:

$ nimble test

You should see a "tests passed" message. If you get Access is denied error, try running with administrator rights.
