== API or rather ABI? ==
An A'''P'''I serves source code portability, it results in being able to '''compile''', '''then execute''' programs. The same API can be maintained over multiple instruction sets, e.g. x86, ARM and [[Power Architecture]].
An A'''B'''I server binary portability, it results in being able to '''execute already compiled''' programs. It is not possible to have the same ABI over different [[Instruction set]]s!
This is absolutely not the same. It is much harder to implement and maintain an ABI. In case you want to run already compiled programs, [[Adobe Photoshop]] or some Video game, you care about the ABI. [[User:ScotXW|ScotXW]] ([[User talk:ScotXW|talk]]) 12:02, 27 February 2014 (UTC)
