I am need in information or recommendations for libraries, C or C++,
for building user-interfaces, either character-based or graphical, for
on PC.  The more object-oriented the better.

Commercial, shareware, public domain are all of interest.

I need something that will provide pop-up windows, menus that scroll
through a list of options, and data entry capability - the usual sorts of 
widgets.

A good example is Novell's Netware interface for the system utilities.  (In
fact, do I recall correctly that it is built from a
commercially available product?)

Packages that support a mouse are desirable.

Being able to do cut and paste with would be really great also.

Finally, does anyone know of a review (BYTE perhaps) of such products.

I appreciate any help that you can offer.  I'll post a summary if I get an
adequate response.

Thanks.
