Problem is, of course, the platform specificity. And of course the M$ link. I know there are various scripting laguages out there, but I really need a simple GUI driven non-script language that I can compile for *nix and win32 (urgh!). The reason for non-scripted is that I would like to use subroutines for common functions.
I dont know TK/TCL and it is a scripting language but I belive it would do the job here, anyone with experiance of this frame work? It is also I belive windows compatable

Any tips? For example, if you use Java, is there a nice free RAD/IDE for it? Anyone tried Kylix? (I have it on CD) Or maybe you could suggest another approach?
Kylix is also an option though it is like java in that it comes with a large visual libary although you will be able to write applications in next to no time with a little practice and knowlage of the libarys. The nice thing is that Kylix code runs in Delphi and porting is very easy provided you keep away from the obviously incompatable parts of the system eg "fork".
