I agree with you that ::Connect is more clean (for me) that using the 
EVENT_TABLE macros.

wxWidgets has a lot of more features that other libraries, and covers a wide 
range of final applications, has excellent support, and the user base 
installed is *HUGE*. There is also very good IDE's for wxWidgets 
(dialogblocks .i.e.).


However here is link for a english comparation from their website:
