I'm wanting to write a GUI application. CLIM seemed to be interesting,
but is there any other free implementetation than for X?

Specifically, is there one for Win XP?

Curiously,

The commercial implementations probably support CLIM on Windows.

McCLIM does not have a native windows backend.  As a workaround, some
have used McCLIM with its CLX backend using an X server on Windows.

Another alternative might be McCLIM using the gtkairo backend.  Gtkairo
on Windows has known bugs that limit its usefulness, but simple
applications work.  Obviously, that is not a stand-alone solution
either, but there is a simple installer for GTK+ 2.8 on gimp-win.sf.net.
