whats wrong with Snd? You know you can build it to use Gtk2 now
as well as motif? I'm a Gtk advocate, and afaik Snd is pretty much
the only audio editor which uses Gtk2. Its a real shame to see otherwise
excellent editors like Rezound not reach their full potential because
of their choice of ugly widget toolkits.
For me personally, I have yet to see a crossplatfrom widget tookit be
used really successfully - they just look odd, sometimes for subtle reasons.
(Although i must say that XUL comes close, despite its speed, and that
only because of the genius who made the Mozilla Modern theme.)
