Gtk is a C toolkit for building graphical applications for Linux, Mac, Windows, the Hurd, and probably some other operating systems. You'll need `pkg-config` and `GNU Make` to compile Gtk programs.

• GdkPixbuf lets you display images in Gtk applications.
• Pango is a library for handling text in multiple languages.
• ATK is an Accessibility Toolkit for Gtk.
• Gobject Introspection that lets you query Gtk for functions, data,
