I believe Tk and Qt also use some native widgets now in their Aqua
incarnations, but I haven''t been impressed with either. Text rendering
in particular looks like a bad Carbon port. Plus, I don''t think either
one fully adopts XP themes on Windows, and Qt isn''t free on Windows.
WxWidgets is free on all platforms, and it''s the only cross-platform
GUI toolkit I''ve seen that gets tabbed panels right. Even Swing, which
has had a lot of work put into both the Windows and OS X look-and-feel,
doesn''t render tabbed panels correctly.
Nick, thank you so much for working on getting 2.5 running. That''s
fantastic news! I''d be happy to test on OS X as it progresses.
