Looks really nice. Like VS 11.

@bone-you Thanks for the link, I like the syntax highlighting a tad better.

C++ using the Windows API is just C++. C++ using .NET framework is C++/CLI (or the older MC++).
The WinAPI is dependent of the Windows kernel, so it's not cross-platform. It's like using the CarbonAPI on OS X.
For the C++/CLI, as it contains native code within a .NET application, I doubt Mono will be able to run it. So, I would say no.

Making a cross-platform program is a pain... So, using boost is a good idea :p
