Jump from PyGTK to C GTK

[Nils Söderman <nils meditalk com>]

Hello, i have been using glade to build a GUI, doing an app to fill the 
entry-boxes with data. OK so far. But when i wanted to color the boxes 
with help of PyGTK according to their content and did not succeed with 
that i decided to start using c instead, where i have 20 years more 
experience. But i fell on a simple detail, when in PyGTK i wanted a 
pointer to an entrybox, using MyBox  = builder.get_object ( "MyBoxID" ) 
and tried to find an equivalent in GTK c i was in no luck. So, how to 
exchange MyBox  = builder.get_object ( "MyBoxID" ) to c-acceptable code? 
ALL the example code i have found uses pointer derived with a variant of 
'new', not applicable using glade! PLEASE point me right!
