Better is a relative term there, and the MS compiler isn't free (as in
beer) so developers would have to pony up for that. GTK doesn't seem to
be that great on Windows, but if I were writing an app from scratch, I'd
still be using GTK and gcc. I do believe they're the best combination on
Linux.

I doubt TrollTech would agree. TOra, a GUI database designer that I use
at work is a GPL'd app, but the developer charges for licenses for the
Windows version, as he had to pay a 4 figure sum for his Windows Qt
license.

Pan is written in C, and wxWidgets only has C++ bindings, as far as I'm
aware (ok, it has Python and Perl, but they're scripting languages, and
I don't consider them suitable for Pan-type apps).
