GTK+的Introduction

GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off projects to complete application suites.

GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties.

GTK+ is based on three libraries developed by the GTK+ team:

GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis of GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C, portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.
Pango is a library for layout and rendering of text, with an emphasis on internationalization. It forms the core of text and font handling for GTK+-2.0.
The ATK library provides a set of interfaces for accessibility. By supporting the ATK interfaces, an application or toolkit can be used with such tools as screen readers, magnifiers, and alternative input devices.
GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development.

GTK+是一個跨平臺的用于創(chuàng)建圖形化用戶界面的工具包。GTK+提供了一套完整的窗口部件，可適用的項目范圍從一次性的小程序一直到完整的應用程序項目。

GTK+是一項自由軟件，同時也是GNU工程中的一員。盡管如此，GTK+的授權(quán)條例——GNU LGPL——允許它被所有的開發(fā)者使用，包括用來開發(fā)擁有私有版權(quán)的軟件，而不需要繳納任何的許可費或版稅。

GTK+基于以下三個由GTK小組開發(fā)的庫。

GLib：是最底層而核心的庫，它構(gòu)成了GTK+以及GNOME的主要部分。它以事件循環(huán)，多線程，動態(tài)載入以及對象系統(tǒng)的方式為C語言提供了數(shù)據(jù)結(jié)構(gòu)處理，輕便封裝，以及運行時功能的接口。
Pango：是一個著重于國際化的界面設計和文本表現(xiàn)的庫。它構(gòu)成了GTK+-2.0的文本處理和字體處理的核心。
ATK：提供了一系列可訪問的接口。通過支持ATK接口，應用程序或工具包可以用來與一些工具如讀屏器，放大器，或是可選擇的輸入設備進行交互。

GTK+已被重新設計以支持多種語言，而不僅限于C/C++。在使用比如perl或python之類的語言時使用GTK+（特別是與Glade GUI Builder結(jié)合時）可以為應用程序的快速開發(fā)提供一種有效的方法。

Congratulate for the birth of GTK board!
