Anthony,
MFC is Microsoft's Foundation Classes. Sort of like their Toolbox for C++.
It's the only means to do decent Windows programming without losing your
mind. But you're right in that we can't use it as the only means. It can
provide the main event loop inside wrapper classes, and it can do the
drawing of buttons, but most of the stuff will still need to be
cross-platform juggling of an abstraction layer between us and
MFC/Toolbox/KDE/whatever.
Cheers,
