I use Ruby-GTK+ because it is supported on Linux and on Windows. I
have some wrappers around it to make it even easier (in other words,
I've created a "domain specific language" for GTK+ using Ruby.)

GTK+ is getting greater with the time. It's good enough for my own
tools. But I haven't tested it with real users yet. :-)

It has some good widgetsin comparison with other toolkits. But the
other toolkits are improving as well, and maybe with the right task or
knowledge can be much better than GTK+.

GTK+ is more or less free for comercial use, too.

Cheers,
Joao
