Welcome to GTKWave

GTKWave is a fully featured GTK+ based wave viewer for Unix and Win32 which reads LXT, LXT2, VZT, and GHW files as well as standard Verilog VCD/EVCD files and allows their viewing. You can grab version 3.1.13 here.

For cvs access to the experimental, pre-release sourcetree on Sourceforge:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@gtkwave.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gtkwave login
[press enter]
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@gtkwave.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gtkwave co -P gtkwave3

The Win32 version is available here, however if you are running Cygwin, running under that is recommended instead. A Mac port by Felix Bertram can be found here on Sourceforge. Ports to other platforms which GTK supports should be trivial.
