GUI Development Tools...
Hi friends,
I am working in a project who's GUI is designed using Characters or colsole based (like DOS). Now i would like to change its GUI using any of the GUI development tools in Linux,
My Scenario:
* My code is huge and written purely in C and assembly.
* Cross platform support is not mandatory.
* My code is not OO.
Can anyone suggest me an appropriate GUI development tool in linux???
(like Qt, gtk, wxWindows, etc) or where can i find and decide something?
I'll be happy to add Rep for valuable inputs or Suggestons.
Thanks guys,
Salim

Gtk, Qt, wxWidgets, etc. are all widget toolkits. They all provide graphical components, which you can use in your program. Further, they all are capable of providing the exact same functionality, with differences being in appearance and the details of implementation.
Gtk and Qt are both more popular than wxWidgets. Gtk is based in C (though there is a C++ binding available), and Qt and wxWidgets are both C++.
I personally prefer Gtk for no other reason than that I prefer the way it looks over both of the others. The best bet would be to give all 3 a little try, see what's the most natural for you to program in, and what you like the most, and then go with that.DISTRO=Arch
