[...] wxWindows is quite C++ centric and AFAIK nobody has made a serious effort at a C++ FFI yet. One of the big advantages of GTK+ is that it was written with bindings for other languages in mind. Therefore, it is probably the toolkit with the most language bindings.
I didn't mean that a Haskell binding to wxWindows should be made. I meant that the strategy of wxWindows should be used also for a Haskell GUI library. This strategy is to define a common GUI interface and provide implementations for different platforms based on different libraries like GTK+ (for GNOME), Qt (for KDE), Win32. By the way a Haskell binding to wxWindows would maybe cause performance problems just because wxWindows isn't "native" but itself uses other GUI libraries. Wolfgang
