One significant advantage to GTK though is that it is GPL and available on multiple platforms for no cost (except for transmission and media etc).
QT/Trolltech are a bit of an anomaly on the Windows platform. QT for windows is not a free product. To develop QT apps on windows platforms requires you dishing out a good chuck of change. Although I own QT for Windows, I think this one thing is worth noting to anyone doing cross platform development with it. Probably one reason why cross platform developers looking for least costly solutions don't always tend to jump on the QT bandwagon if they plan to target windows. Whereas GTK doesn't suffer this problem. Mike On Wed, 2004-06-09 at 19:03, Aaron J.
