ive not seen any ftlk apps, and the library from my readings is very limited.
i have seen many wx apps, and despite being horrible code (in many cases)
the ui still works more or less as expected.

Well then, either we focus on wxWidgets, or FLTK (!).
I don't mind the latter, IMHO its interface is quite
clean and simple, a total opposite to wxWidgets albeit
somewhat limiting usage. Never encounter a buggy FLTK
app either (lack of exposure?).

I have. Mainly my own, when I tried it :-D

But seriously, I've seen at least one box (or X installation) where
FLTK, and only FLTK would have garbled fonts. It seemed that they were
2px high or something. FLTK is very appealing in some ways, though.

wx I recall as something that tries hard to advertise as cross
platform and native look and fails miserably in the latter. Kind of
like all the Java toolkits. But that's old memory and I don't remember
using any wx apps. I take that as a sign personally, but of course
that means nothing for anyone else's judgement. QT is still a creeping
horror.

Enough opinionated handwaving, I hope :)
