Maybe there are very good PT GUI's for windows. But thats no reason not
to support windows, because PTGui and PTAssembler are both shareware
progs. Hopefully we will offer functionality that other gui's do not
have :)

Supporting other platforms gives us a much bigger userbase. I think
thats a goal that is worth a lot, because hopefully more people will
contribute with ideas and maybe even code. Especially when the cost
of supporting multiple platforms is not too big. the step back from
QT 3.1 to QT 2.3 is imho acceptable.

So, yes I want to make a cross platfrom GUI. Else I would have used
the kde libraries, because they offer some nice features that QT
misses.
