My apologies!  I'm glad to be corrected on this.  There are Cygwin
packages for Qt as well, but I have heard about enough bugs to think I
should avoid Qt.  I have used enough Gtk apps that run flawlessly under
Windows to have my hopes that it works well.

My understanding is that wx wraps Windows, OSX, Qt, and GTK+... I guess
some of the wrappers fit the native apps better than others?
