Honestly, the most inefficient code I saw was done in C++. You really should get a weapon's license before coding in C++. > GTK is also specific to Unix (not Mac) and Windows, and looks weird on > Windows, not very native. Again, hmmm. I do not agree with that "weird" argument. It is no more weird than _every single_ Windows version completely changing the look&feel, let alone the location of menu items. And they still do not provide anything akin to a "Help", because "Windows help" sure does not deserve that name. Rather "Welcome to hell" or something similar. An important point to make is, GTK is in C, which means that even Microsoft based compilers respect the same ABI as anyone else (that is probably the reason they advertise C++ and C#, and not C, even if everything they produce is still C compatible, which is very visible in their APIs). WxLib is in C++, which means you cannot link with g++ if the lib was compiled with MSVC, and vice-versa.

If in doubt, take Java. At least starting with Mustang, it really does a great job pleasing anyone married to their particular platform's look&feel. Plus, Java code really runs everwhere without recompiling. As opposed to C#, I might add.
