Qt certainly is one of the nicest GUI products around, and don't forget PerlQt http://perlqt.sourceforge.net/ which gives you the best of all worlds:

You can prototype in PerlQt and quickly convert to C++ if you need to - though on a 700Mhz Athlon (hardly cutting edge anymore :) I've had no need to since speed has not been an issue - you *might* suffer with resource usage though - Perl + PerlQt is a bit of a memory hog.

PerlQt is certainly good on Unices, and apparently fine on Win32 + Cygwin - watch out for licensing on Win32.

Finally, you get pretty good documentation and qt-designer. Yes, by all means learn how to code Qt by hand at first, but designer will save you a lot of time if the project grows. Designer is the overriding reason why I stick with Qt - not perfect, but far nicer to use than glade, or that commercial wx GUI designer (sorry, forgotten its name, I quickly gave up after test driving the trial download!)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
