Every popular GUI I'm aware of supports C.

An IDE is an integrated development environment, a program that allows you to edit compile and run C source, and usually includes other tools like function browsers, documentation, and automatic "resource" generation for embedding things like images, translateable strings, and dialogs into programs.Most IDEs will support C, C++ and other languages. If using C, simply ignore the class hierarchy browers and other C++ specific functionality. There's no point looking for a C only IDE.

A GUI is a graphical user interface. In programming terms, what you're usually interested in is the API - applications programming interface. This provides fucntions the applications programs can call to bring up windows, draw text and graphics, receive miouse clicks, and so on. Virtually always theroot API is written in C, or at least with a C-callable interface. Often alayer in another language, often C++m, is built on top of the C layer. So the C layer might just have a "Window", the C++ layer might have a "button"with text, a 3d effect, and a way of automatically calling a callback. It will be constructed from C primitives.
