    Qt is much better than wxWidgets.  Unfortunately, for your use in a
closed source package, you'd have to pay for the license in order to
keep your product closed.  On the bright side, it's a one-shot,
developer license so there are no further royalties or fees for
distributing the libraries with your product.
