on wxWidgets... (or other GUI tools)

Does anyone have any experience with wxWidgets, or any other GUI tools? I've barely played around with it but wasn't able to get anything up and running. I intend to play with it more once I have more free time, since I want to use it with MusuGo v0.5.
Also, is it easy to use it with SDL and/or OpenGL?
(I am debating using SDL+OpenGL with MusuGo eventually, but I'm not sure if that would be overkill or not)

Also; I may rename MusuGo, as it's pretty similar to Musagi, a music editor/synthesizer by Dr Petter.

For rapid GUI development use Java + swing.
See avansc's massive creaming of MDK in a Swing vs. wxWidgets competition.

wxWidgets is very good. I've use it for anything GUI I need(and its great for Cross platform stuff)

Qt is pretty good, they've recently gone LGPL.

I prefer GTK+ (or GTKmm for C++ interface.) Throwing OpenGL in is simple.

GTKmm will apparently only work with UNIX type systems. I need something cross-platform.
I think I'll check out Qt and wxWidgets for now.

Where did you hear that?
http://live.gnome.org/gtkmm/MSWindows wrote:One of the major advantages of gtkmm is that it is crossplatform. gtkmm programs written on other platforms such as GNU/Linux can generally be transferred to Windows (and vice versa) with few modifications to the source.
gtkmm currently works with the MingW/GCC3.4 compiler and Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 or later (including the freely available express editions) on the Windows platform. There is an installer available for gtkmm on Microsoft Windows. Refer to
http://live.gnome.org/gtkmm/MSWindows for instructions how to use it.
