The API did change dramatically with version 2.0, but prior to that
it hadn't changed for a long, long time. I've got applications I
wrote against the 1.1 development series that still compile with
1.2.10.

If you're just starting out with GTK+, then the tutorial at
http://www.gtk.org/ is well worth a read. As are the FAQ and
reference documentation found at the same site.

For differences between version 1.2 and 2.0, see the following
page:

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-changes-2-0.html

The tutorial and API reference is included in the source tarballs
for GTK+ and Glib. I don't know if the standard RedHat RPMs
install them anywhere, but if not then they are all on the GTK+
website.

Hope this helps,

Chris
