"....Executable images created for the DOS/Wintel environment, using
the GNU GCC compilers and language standards (but not linking to the
Win32 API), are subject to failure ...."
How useful is a windows-hosted program that doesn't link to the Win32
API? (This is a serious question... I've only done windows programming
with VM languages like java and c#, so I really don't know.) It seems
like some aspect of the Win32 API would be needed for just about any
I/O.
