The only part of this that might be related to Gtk+ would be having a
function called when there is an event on the socket, so that your network
code works nicely with the glib main loop. This would involve making a
GIOChannel using g_io_channel_unix_new(), then calling g_io_add_watch() on
that.

Otherwise, it is just a matter of network programming pure & simple.
