I agree. How does it work?

Is LINA like Wine-in-reverse, implementing Linux APIs on Windows? If so, use Cygwin, which basically does just that.

Is it like wxWidgets, implementing one widget API on multiple platforms? If so, why not use wxWidgets already.

If it's something else... well then what is it?
