Beginning GTK+ and GNOME

by Peter Wright

Linux continues to go from strength to strength, not only taking 20% of the server market but becoming an increasingly popular choice as a standalone desktop platform. The hot issue for the future of Linux is building a graphical front end to compete directly with Windows. Thankfully, the source code is open and available for download and everything about the Graphical User Interface (GUI) is programmable. This book teaches you how to do it using the GNOME architecture (GNU Network Object Model Environment) and GTK+ - the interface which GNOME applications use to interact with the user.
