odd shaped windows

[Dave Andruczyk <djandruczyk yahoo com>]

  Is it possible with gtk to display a window that doesn't have any window
border, decorations, and be of arbritrary shape?

I am starting work on a "automotive dashboard" that uses graphical images of a
car's dash and uses gnomecanvase to render the needles and such and it would
look a LOT better if it didn't have a rectangular window around it. as most
dashboards aren't rectangular, they're curved.

I've seen apps like xmms use a skin that makes an unusual shaped window (kjofol
skin), is this documented someplace? (besides xmms's code)
