<p>
GtkSourceView is a portable C library that extends the standard GTK+
framework for multiline text editing with support for configurable syntax
highlighting, unlimited undo/redo, search and replace, a completion
framework, printing and other features typical of a source code editor.
</p>
<p>
See the <a class="ulink" href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GtkSourceView" target="_top">GtkSourceView website</a>.
</p>
<p>
GtkSourceView 3 depends on GTK+ 3.

<p>
For GtkSourceView 3, the pkg-config name is:
<code class="code">gtksourceview-3.0</code>
</p>
<p>
To compile a program that uses GtkSourceView 3, you
can for example use the following command:
</p>
<p>
<code class="code">$ gcc hello.c `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtksourceview-3.0` -o hello</code>
