Re: Standardisation between Win libraries

Also, libraries such as Llama would have a near impossible time with this.
(Short of wrapping Wine or emulating the entire win32 api, there is no way
to port such wrappers on Linux.)

If Derek were to use such a wrapper in win32lib, then every win32lib program
that called wrapper functions directly would break on porting to Llama.
(Same today for win32lib programs that use w32func() or w32proc().)

[Note that this is ignoring how far behind from win32lib Llama is currently...
so basicly any complex win32lib program would break on Llama due to features
which have yet to be implemented.]
