No!  GTK is most definitely cross platform.  I use it on both Windows
and Linux with great success.  And it's very consistent in the sense
that my GUI looks identical on both platforms.  I have almost no need
for any platform dependent code in my GUI layout.  (Unlike Tkinter and
wxPython where I remember having to tweek fonts and other things on a
platform by platform basis.)

Here's several pointers:
