cross Development for GUI apps ?

Gambas2 is graphical. It may eventually get on to windopws platform if KDE is ported to it. Free as in freedom not price GPL code so you don't pay any run time licences but you can charge your customers for support if you deploy the product.

RealBasic is Linux, Appil and windopws platform - the Linux platform being free and in monetary terms but not sure about code and the commercial terms for other platforms.

I would also consider QT (now LGPL) and GTK+ as well -- both are cross platform.
