Thanks for this. It would be very useful for app programmers if
the "drawing area" unit in gtk-demo could be updated to use cairo
rather than the old gdk drawing mechanism -- particularly for
those of us who never truly understood the gdk mechanism but
managed to get by via copy-paste-and-modify from known good
sources!
