One of the Tk apps I maintain gets distributed to Windows users as
well as Linux users. On my Win7 machine, it looks/acts like a native
(at least as much as a Linux user can tell). None of the hardcore
windows guys who use it have ever mentioned that it looks or acts
oddly.
On Linux, it looks like crap and acts a little goofy -- sort of
vaguely old-school-Motif with non-standard keybindings.
