Will Gtk# applications run on Windows?

Yes, applications compiled using Gtk# will work out of the box on Windows. Notice that using the Mozilla and Gnome libraries is not currently supported and will limit the portability of your application. Both issues are being addressed and will be fixed in the future. Update: some (but not all) Gnome librarites will work on Windows now. And GeckSharp will be able to run via the GRE and GeckoSharp installer for Windows. An experimental Mono and Gtk# installer for Windows (http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?monowin32) with support for many Gnome libraries is available. You can get the Mozilla GRE and GeckoSharp (http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?monowin32) installer. If you absolutely need the latest gtk+/gnome binaries for Windows, then you can get them here (ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/).
