I used PyGtk in Windows since the beginning of the 2006. It is perfect for
my goal and the GUIs written in Windows are ok also in Linux.
With PyGtk I use Glade for building GUI without writing code. Glade 3 if a
bit slower than Glade 2, but it is a good tools to make fast the
development.

PyGtk, like Python,  is multi-platform and in my situation it is all ok.

To use it, you must download Gtk libraries here
http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/modules/news/ and the three PyGtk
libraries for Windows here http://www.pygtk.org/downloads.html.
