That's a bit unfair to wxWidgets ... it's much more than an MFC workalike!
To the OP: wxWidgets will not allow you to simply recompile an MFC app for
linux, but if you port your code to wxWidgets you will be able to build it
for linux and for Windows (and for other systems, such as Macintosh) from
one set of sources. You will also be able to include functionality that MFC
can't offer -- e.g. resizable dialogs -- very easily.
It's certainly worth a look, and the framework is free.
