I'm thinking about starting back again with C++ (wow, does that ever sound cliched) and I'd like to know what an easy/popular widget API is for Windows programming that isn't MFC. I tried to learn MFC a number of years ago and just about threw myself and my computer out the window. I want to write (anything!) a program with a windows-like interface. You know, check boxes, text boxes, drop down menus, toolbars, the whole bit. If you have a good suggestion, perhaps you could also post some links to some tutorial sites so I can get a feel for how difficult it is before I slit my wrists over it.
