The \ maybe shouldn't be in the tutorial since it's meant for those new
to Unix/Linux as well as experienced users. It's just a mark to denote a
line that's longer than can fit on the screen without a newline. Emacs
uses it for this, I don't know about other editors. So just use
`gtk-config --cflags` `gtk-config --libs` and you shouldn't have any
problems.
