I'll admit that I don't have a lot of experience with GUIs, but wouldn't Qt or GTK+ be suitable for this sort of thing? Also, for an ASCII art editor, I'd say

I'll admit that I don't have a lot of experience with GUIs, but wouldn't Qt or GTK+ be suitable for this sort of thing? Also, for an ASCII art editor, I'd say that even something as simple as an xterm-compatible terminal application would be suitable ;)

GTK+ works on Mac, but is pretty poor. I can't comment on Qt though, but in principle, yes I believe it is suitable. An xterm-based[0] version of this would be very cool! Though the surface tool wouldn't work well in that situation.

  Qt has gotten much better over the past few years, but Qt apps on OS X still stick out like a sore thumb to anyone who is familiar with what Cocoa provides for free that Qt has to emulate.
