26 There's a few to choose from. Here's some:
27
28 java - portability was one of the original design goals
29 javafx - looks real interesting for 2D graphics
30 gtk - lots of language wrappers available
31 qt4 - some kde apps are starting to be portable
32 shoes - really simple UI, designed for learning
33 gosu - 2D cross platform library
34
35 I'm sure there are more...

37 Have fun,
