GUI, GUI, my kingdom for a GUI

trying to get to the next step but as has been stated before, I am not a GUI type programmer. All my training has been for the CLI. So I am very fuzzy and hardpressed to make a nice GUI interface to change anything in the Q3. Looking into some options. Reading on QT4, I hate generic windows stuff but might have to step that way also. Problem I have is that every GUI solution I have found wants to take full control of the App by having the base derived from one of their classes. I am going to also look into IMGUI alittle more but with that I have to write it all myself (as it is more a concept then a library to use)
