What is the most pleasant way to write a portable GUI in CL?
I think the IUP bindings are really worth a try: https://github.com/lispnik/iup/ Overview of it (and others): https://lispcookbook.github.io/cl-cookbook/gui.html I quickly tried it and it worked as expected. The only difficulty is to learn the framework: how to assemble the GUI parts (where to put the scrollbar?) and this sort of things. Given the author it should be pretty much dynamic (as much as Ltk) but might not be there yet. It will, given more users and demand.
