As a gtk new user, I'd like to find some doc about this ref description
to understand what are the differences between: how it is, and your
modifications.
Is there any doc somewhere? except the source code I mean :).

I'm currently focusing on the graphical aspect of gtk, but I'd like
to know the internal workings (ref counts, widget creation scheme...).
