<title>GLib</title>

    GLib is the most fundamental of all the GNOME libraries.  It provides

    simple data structures for C programs (linked lists, binary trees, hash

    tables) and various utilities such as string manipulation functions.

    If you are not writing C programs, you normally don't need to be concerned

    with GLib.  If you are, however, GLib will make your life as a C programmer

    much easier.
