I know what it is thanks. I even contributed code a long time back to it.
Then why are you saying it's going to pay any kind of emulation cost? It's not really much different to what MS do. NT has it's own sys calls that MS call in their Win32 implementation. WINE calls POSIX calls in their's.
Well done contributing anyway. I haven't, but I crawled all over the source when I developed on Windows as it was better than MSDN for the semi-documented stuff (that was only documented at all because EU forced them).
I didn't and I don't know where you got the idea I did.
Cool, well happy it was just a miss understanding, but I'm clearly not the only one who thought you were saying that. Might be worth clarifying in you earlier posts.
