Qt is not freely available for the Win32 platform so a Windows NT port
using it would be pretty much useless for most of the people.
Are there any good platform independent GUI toolkits around that are
freely available? I have been looking into this and have not found one
yet so I think going for the SoWin abstraction is the safest option.
