 Just be aware that there are far more options for a GUI framework
than that. The granddaddy of them all is the Athena widget set distributed
with X11, there's also SDL, fltk and a bunch of others - and you can even
go down to the Xt library but you'll be doing a lot more work that way
building widgets from scratch.

 None of this is special to Raspberry Pi though, it's all portable
stuff.
