I would absolutely suggest Qt. Runs on Unix, Windows and OSX. For now the 
Windows license isn't GPL'ed but it will be when Qt4 is released. Until then 
you can use QT 3/Windows Free Edition from 
http://kde-cygwin.sourceforge.net/qt3-win32 - and no, it does not require 
cygwin!

X11 edition downloadable from http://www.trolltech.com/download/qt/x11.html
OSX edition downloadable from http://www.trolltech.com/download/qt/mac.html
The excellent documentation can be browsed online at
