I use many of the gdk routines in the Gnome Stripchart Plotter app,
since I wrote this before the advent of the Gnome Canvas widget.  This
provides a real-world example of parsing and allocating colors,
getting a colormap, allocating and unref'ing a pixmap for use as
backing store, drawing lines to the pixmap, and copying the resultant
image to a window.  While not a tiny app at 2KLOC, it's a good deal
smaller than the Gimp.

It's in the gnome CVS repository under

    gnome/gnome-utils/gstripchart/gstripchart.c
