I'm no expert on GTK so beware of inaccuracies here... but I think the point is that gtk-config provides information about the libraries that need to be included into your application for a GTK1.2 application, and pkg-config is for GTK2.0. If you are intending to compile a GTK2 (the current version) application then your compile command would probably look something like gcc gtk2.c -o gtk `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-2.0` Have a look at http://www.gtk.org/tutorial/c39.html for the helloworld example. Talking of IDEs, I'd be interested in hearing any opinions on the free Linux development tools. I haven't used anjuta much, I found the way it sets up its compile options confusing! It seemed to behave very bizarrely with the pkgconfig for gtkmm, the C++ wrapper for GTK. I also had a play with Eclipse CDT for C/C++ and didn't like that either, so I've been using gvim for an editor, CGDB for the debugger and building little shellscripts to use as compile scripts. Pat.
