I think this (and the last point) misinterprets the semantics of the OPs post. .NET Core is not .NET, it's a **multi-platform** framework for a language syntax specification (c#). It's not an implementation of some API that you cannleverage in another language specification. Writing a ctype accessor for a Windows API does not equate to cpp code that is now magically Python. It means no more than what it is, "a foreign function library for Python" (https://docs.python.org/3/library/ctypes.html). .Net Core is fundamentally different and much like Python in the way that a compiler and runtime for a common language syntax specification has been written for multiple platforms. So in general, the same Python script could run on both platforms, and most certainly the same .NET Core source could compile and run on its supported platforms. So back to the question, .NET Core is a wip which where applicable will soon present all the existing .NET APIs, excluding those which are Windows specific and don't make sense to present on a non-Windows platform like Windows Forms. jlc -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
