Easiest way to build a cross-platform application

Question

I have read a few articles in the cross-platform tag. However, as I\'m starting a fresh application (mostly a terminal/console app), I\'m wondering about the easiest way to make

I'd say if you really want to use C++, QT is the easiest way for cross-platform application, I found myself using QT when I need an UI even though QT has a large set of library which makes pretty much everything easier in C++.

If you don't want to use QT then you need a good design and a lot of abstraction to make cross-platfform application.

However I'm using more and more Python bindinq to QT for medium size application. If you are working on a console application and you know a bit of python, you might find Python scripting much more comfortable than C++. It keeps the time comsuming stuff away to be able to focus on your application.
