GTK+ client server app

[Meghal Harish Varia <varia ecf utoronto ca>]

Hello,

Does anyone know of a way I can implement a client app in a client-server
setting.  For example, my app requires continuous monitoring for incoming
messages while providing the GUI to the user.  Upon arrival of each
message, my app should be notified, and I should perform the appropriate
steps.

Anyone know how this can be done with GTK+?

thanks,
