I'm looking for opinions on what to use for developing a GUI for an application that is intended to be developed across Win, Mac, and Linux platforms. This application will quite likely need some specialized gui work, so standard widgets won't get it entirely done. Best approach? Use api bindings like Windex and the respective binding for Mac, and Xwindows-gnome stuff? Or try using GTK since it is supported across all of those platforms? It should be obvious that the application in question is being coded in Ada. Windows in the primary development target, all others are secondary concerns. Any advice would be welcome! -Jesse Farmer
