It is designed to be small and efficient, but +still flexible enough to allow the programmer freedom in the interfaces +created. GTK allows the programmer to use a variety of standard user +interface widgets such as push, radio and check buttons, menus, lists +and frames. It also provides several "container" widgets which can be +used to control the layout of the user interface elements. + + GTK provides some unique features. (At least, I know of no other +widget library which provides them). For example, a button does not +contain a label, it contains a child widget, which in most instances +will be a label. However, the child widget can also be a pixmap, image +or any combination possible the programmer desires. This flexibility is +adhered to throughout the library. + +GTK+-2.0 is a stable release, but many applications still require +GTK+-1.2, the previous stable version. You can have the runtime and +development environments for both GTK+-2.0 and GTK+-1.2 installed +simultaneously on your computer. + +WWW: http://www.gtk.org/ |
