Well, yes.  I interpreted this as meaning that I shouldn't modify the
pointer itself.

And yes -- the solution I gave was gtkmm.  Glad you found the gtk solution.
I should point out that one thing that tripped me up for a bit was figuring
out where the Gtk::Label object was for arbitrary controls -- i.e. you have
to dig into the control to get to the label.

Happy programming!
