You might try Zinc (www.zinc.com).  I believe it now supports linux
(as well as other flavors of unix).  It is an application framework
for C++ that will allow you to create an application on any(!)
platform and deploy to other platforms with a native look-n-feel.  For
example, on DOS, you can deploy chacter based, MS windows, or Motif
look/feel.  Check out the web page.  I believe there are discussions
on alt.comp.zinc and alt.comp.c++ as well as others.
