Which is different from the look being exactly the same on every platform, but it's what you really want, most probably. m.

Yes, I'd say qt is the other one to check. gtk+ might mean trouble, IIRC different gtk+ versions didn't use to live so nicely on a Windows box. GIMP and some other program required different versions of gtk+ on Windows when I last tried -- and the Highlander paid a visit: "there can be only one ..." (Maybe they've fixed that? Or was it about Windows not being too tolerant about different versions of libraries?) ... but anyway I'm mostly classificable as a server-side java dude, and don't know the more obscure choices with GUIs that well. So, my opinions are worth their weight in uranium (hazardous material, need proper handling, not suitable for most uses, keep away from the reach of children ;) ). -- Arttu V.

[gentoo-user] Whats better for crossplatform applications?
May be, it's not a "only Gentoo" question, but I want to write and start applications under Gentoo and Windows. I saw Tcl/Tk library in work (as example OOMMF: http://math.nist.gov/oommf/, but it, sometimes, unstable under Windows XP). And it did not like me to look of buttons, lists etc. Other way I saw in using wxPython (http://www.wxpython.org/) or wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org/). I want to have as little as possible differences in GUI of my program when it starts under GNOME, KDE or Windows. May be some other libraries for crossplatform development are exists.
