The first one is certainly possible. Pick any of the well-known toolkits (Tkinter, wxwidgets, GTK, etc), and see how it feels. All of them are portable across the three platforms you name, so see which one is most comfortable for you to code in and produces the best results. Definitely Python 3. If you don't have anything specifically holding you to Python 2, take Python 3 and get all the latest features. Most importantly, you'll never run into troubles with Unicode.
