Well, not to push a `competitor' to XForms, but the Qt toolkit
(http://www.troll.no/) can render both to the screen (e.g. X11) or a
printer device. Qt is nice, but I prefer XForms because..
a) XForms has a much simpler callback mechanism which I prefer
b) XForms has a nice GUI designer (although Qt has one too, not tried
it yet)
c) You're not forced to use C++ with XForms
