If I were to write one right now (and I might actually need in a
few days), I'd use Gtk2Hs.
Cons:
- Does not fit Haskell's style.
- Very imperative, everything in IO.
Pros:
- Terrific binding: (almost) complete, working, tested.
- Multi-platform (as far as Gtk itself is).
- If you need, reading Gtk's C docs is straightforward.
- Seamless integration with Cairo (yay!).
- ... (probably more)
I already used Gtk on other languages before Haskell, though, so
I'm somewhat biased.
