Why don't they use superior toolkit in wxWidgets?

>wxWidgets is best described as a native mode toolkit as it provides a thin abstraction to a platform's native widgets, contrary to emulating the display of widgets using graphic primitives. Calling a native widget on the target platform results in a more native looking interface than toolkits such as Swing (for Java), as well as offering performance and other benefits.[26]

Qt and GTK software looks like dog shit on Microsoft Windows. Nobody would use such shit looking software.

Because Wx is only used in Python by fags.

Found your problem.

It doesn't have C bindings.

> not using Athena widgets

Just go back to Windows.

Because I don't give a shit about Windows and wxWidgets just uses Gtk on Linux. I don't want my applications to use Gtk. I want them to use Qt.
