No, not really.
It should really be called the Standard Windows Toolkit so that it
reflects the fact that it's far from industrial quality on any other
platform (except possibly Mac). Unless things have changed, it should
be easy to see what I mean if you create a simple benchmark of GUI
operations speed.
Furthermore, I'm not sure SWT exist for platforms other than Win32,
Mac and Linux.
