No they don't. Each has their own version. e.g. Linux has shared libraries (.ao files I think). Microsoft Win32 has DLL (.dll)

It wouldn't be portable. If if was don't you think we would have done it a LONG time ago?
Basically you'd have to write a wrapper for each platform...

Thanks for the tip!
Where's the GAPI manual by the way - I couldn't see one, only examples?

*update* - are you sure about SHFullScreen? I searched for it at MSDN and strangely even though it appears in other articles it's not in MSDN itself? Seems weird...
