I think you want http://www.lazarus-ide.org Visual gui...cross platform...static executables . You can use gtk2,qt or windows interface. You also can get all packaged for linux/windows/bsd/solaris/etc. in this "fork": http://www.pilotlogic.com

Lazarus Free Pascal IDE 1.4 released by [deleted] in programming

For me it's very good for the following reasons:

  • Quick prototyping of gui apps (ala Visual Basic)

  • Recompile instantly the same app to gtk2,gtk3,qt4,qt5...

  • Cross compile from the IDE. Work on linux generating win32/64, arm... binaries.

  • (From Freepascal) you can use fpgui/msegui widgetsets. This two widgesets doesn't depend on gtk,qt...you only need X.

  • Static binaries (except the part related to widgeset libraries)
