@GTK_SELECTION_BROWSE: Exactly one element is selected. In some circumstances,
  such as initially or during a search operation, it's possible for no element

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkStateType ##### -->
<para>
This type indicates the current state of a widget; the state determines how
the widget is drawn. The #GtkStateType enumeration is also used to
identify different colors in a #GtkStyle for drawing, so states can be
used for subparts of a widget as well as entire widgets.
</para>

@GTK_STATE_NORMAL: State during normal operation.
@GTK_STATE_ACTIVE: State of a currently active widget, such as a depressed button.
@GTK_STATE_PRELIGHT: State indicating that the mouse pointer is over
the widget and the widget will respond to mouse clicks.

unresponsive to user actions.

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkSubmenuDirection ##### -->

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkSubmenuPlacement ##### -->
<para>

</para>

@GTK_TOP_BOTTOM: 
@GTK_LEFT_RIGHT: 

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkToolbarStyle ##### -->
<para>
Used to customize the appearance of a #GtkToolbar. Note that 
setting the toolbar style overrides the user's preferences
for the default toolbar style.  Note that if the button has only
a label set and GTK_TOOLBAR_ICONS is used, the label will be
visible, and vice versa.
</para>

@GTK_TOOLBAR_ICONS: Buttons display only icons in the toolbar.
@GTK_TOOLBAR_TEXT: Buttons display only text labels in the toolbar.
@GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH: Buttons display text and icons in the toolbar.
@GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH_HORIZ: Buttons display icons and text alongside each
other, rather than vertically stacked

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkUpdateType ##### -->

</para>

@GTK_UPDATE_CONTINUOUS: Notify updates whenever the value changed
@GTK_UPDATE_DISCONTINUOUS: Notify updates when the mouse button has been released
@GTK_UPDATE_DELAYED: Space out updates with a small timeout

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkVisibility ##### -->
<para>
Used by #GtkCList and #GtkCTree to indicate whether a row is visible.
</para>

@GTK_VISIBILITY_NONE: The row is not visible.
@GTK_VISIBILITY_PARTIAL: The row is partially visible.
@GTK_VISIBILITY_FULL: The row is fully visible.

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkWindowPosition ##### -->
<para>
Window placement can be influenced using this enumeration. Note that
using #GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER_ALWAYS is almost always a bad idea. 
It won't necessarily work well with all window managers or on all windowing systems.
</para>

@GTK_WIN_POS_NONE: No influence is made on placement.
@GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER: Windows should be placed in the center of the screen.
@GTK_WIN_POS_MOUSE: Windows should be placed at the current mouse position.
@GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER_ALWAYS: Keep window centered as it changes size, etc.
@GTK_WIN_POS_CENTER_ON_PARENT: Center the window on its transient
parent (see gtk_window_set_transient_for()).

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkWindowType ##### -->
<para>
A #GtkWindow can be one of these types. Most things you'd consider a
"window" should have type #GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL; windows with this type
are managed by the window manager and have a frame by default (call
gtk_window_set_decorated() to toggle the frame).  Windows with type
#GTK_WINDOW_POPUP are ignored by the window manager; window manager
keybindings won't work on them, the window manager won't decorate the
window with a frame, many GTK+ features that rely on the window
manager will not work (e.g. resize grips and
maximization/minimization). #GTK_WINDOW_POPUP is used to implement
widgets such as #GtkMenu or tooltips that you normally don't think of 
as windows per se. Nearly all windows should be #GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL.
In particular, do not use #GTK_WINDOW_POPUP just to turn off
the window borders; use gtk_window_set_decorated() for that.
</para>

@GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL: A regular window, such as a dialog.
@GTK_WINDOW_POPUP: A special window such as a tooltip.

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkSortType ##### -->
<para>
Determines the direction of a sort.
</para>

@GTK_SORT_ASCENDING: Sorting is in ascending order.
@GTK_SORT_DESCENDING: Sorting is in descending order.

<!-- ##### ENUM GtkDragResult ##### -->
<para>
Gives an indication why a drag operation failed. 
The value can by obtained by connecting to the
#GtkWidget::drag-failed signal.
</para>

@GTK_DRAG_RESULT_SUCCESS: The drag operation was successful
@GTK_DRAG_RESULT_NO_TARGET: No suitable drag target
@GTK_DRAG_RESULT_USER_CANCELLED: The user cancelled the drag operation
@GTK_DRAG_RESULT_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED: The drag operation timed out
@GTK_DRAG_RESULT_GRAB_BROKEN: The pointer or keyboard grab used
   for the drag operation was broken
@GTK_DRAG_RESULT_ERROR: The drag operation failed due to some 
   unspecified error
