Yes this is true, in C.  GTKmm makes things rather nice if you work in
C++.  In fact I kind of like how GTKmm works without a preprocessor,
with type-safe callbacks.  I wish Qt folks would compare Qt against
GTKmm rather than just GTK+, as they are looking at things from a C++
point of view anyway.

GTK is always in need of people willing to flesh out the documentation.
 It is nice that one can refer to the source code in any open source
project.
