Hello again,
thank you for your comments on Ada and GUIs. As I can see there is no such 
toolkit I am looking for available at the time. Maybe I will begin to 
develop one if I have a bit more time.
The concept of the toolkit (or library) I was looking for should be like 
the one of wxWindows. wxWindows (http:://www.wxwindows.org/) is a C++ 
library using the Windows API on the Windows platform and Motif or GTK+ on 
POSIX systems.
On UNIX-like systems I would consider GTK+, Qt and the CDE GUI library as 
native libraries because programs using them fit into the GNOME, KDE or CDE 
desktop respectively. Those desktops I would consider to be the platform.
GtkAda is in my opinion good for developing GNOME applications but not to 
develop Windows applications. A Windows application has (in my opinion) to 
look and feel Windows-like.
Could you tell me how thin the GtkAda binding to GTK+ is? Would it be a 
good idea to base the GTK+ version of a multi-plattform library on GtkAda? 
Or should one create a real thin binding?

Wolfgang
