TCL. It's the most cross-platform you can get, it's modular (eg. you just
link in a library) and you can eventually even script your own configuration
files making it only activate certain settings on predetermined conditions.

See http://www.tclconsortium.org/.

Added bonus: I've got plenty of experience with TCL to help out. :)

One drawback though: The Tcl/Tk Consortium is Shutting Down..
