Can anyone help us with the following:

We are looking for an development system for C++ that has (either as
part of itself or from reliable 3rd party suppliers):

= GUI system for OS's from DOS, WINDOWS to UNIX covering PCs', Macs,
  workstations. To include all standard GUI controls, editing and
  data table objects.

= Full printer, plotter support on all OSs' and platforms.

= Good technical graphics capabilities including graphing and 3D
  applications.

= Ability to easily incorporate other (human) languages in the
  interface (allowing switching from on language to another within
  a program using a single key press).

As you can see we're looking for an environment that will allow us
to develop software without getting bogged down in OS or hardware
specific problems (don't we all!).

We've narrowed our options down to *Zinc* and *zApp* which cover
some but not all of the above requirements, both through technical
info supplied by the companies involved and other feedback on
Internet and elsewhere.

I'd appreciate any comments from anyone using these or other
development systems under Windows (or any other OS).
Please email any comments direct
Thanks for your help.
