I disagree - there was a lot more to building dev tools for windows
than just emitting machine code- there's also DLL's, import libraries,
and interfacing to the Windows and the Windows Debug Kernel.

EXE = Machine Code
DLL = Machine Code with Exported Interface

Interfacing to windows and kernel is machine code calls.

So what's ur point?

Yup. Heck, in Windows the apps are just dll's. They just load differently.
