I think it might be better to use a QListWidget (or QListView) to display the characters; if you set "flow" to "QListView::LeftToRight", and "isWrapping" to true, Qt should be able to get the characters laid out in a pretty good manner.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have been experimenting with that and must say it can be made to work pretty well, but at the cost of losing the buttons. I see little point switching to Qt to get the exact same look as I do with the GTK version, so I may as well stick with GTK. The GTK binary is also about half the size, works faster and has fewer dependencies.
