better than Motif. It contains common and complex widgets, such as

<para>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.</para>
<para>GTK+ was initially developed as a widget set for the GIMP (GNU Image
Manipulation Program). It has grown extensively since then, and is today
used by a large number of applications, and is the toolkit used by the
<ulink url="http://www.gnome.org/">GNOME</ulink> desktop project.</para>
<para>GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the
licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers,
including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees
or royalties.</para>
<para>GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of

builder) provides an effective method of rapid application
