That is interesting. But it seems to be a fact that most people refuse
to use GTK on mac and windows. I dont know how bad and ugly it really is
on windows, but I have to admit that support is really not good. You may
know that I did the Nim GTK3 bindings recently, and I had some
discussions with other developers that time. They really seems to prefer
wxWidgets and Qt a lot. Generally, when I finish my gschem clone, we
generally have basic Windows support, I think PCB is working on Windows,
and it can directly import schematics. OK, some more motivation to
finish my Peted soon.
