ahmmm.. i just gotta say something about the win32 API.
it's simply too damn bloated. It's almost completly written in C though there are some calls that are included in the oficial reference that resemble C++ mostly. It has too many functions for the same purpose. it basicly sukz since the interesting parts of the API, as in, the usefull ones are documented by third party folk. (sysinternals and friends)
windows is damn stupid, linux suks too..
I 100% with the Xfree arguments, though not with the GTK/QT one..
btw.. backwards compatability is usefull even if sometimes at the expense of performance.
l8r.
PS: dá-lhe joao =) btw... redhat sukz now and mdk was never good.
