I can sympathise with you here. Finding out information about TreeView
is ... difficult.

My fairly simple (because it's unfinished) implementation is about 170
lines of code, and that's just to set it up.

Here is tho code I was playing around with while it grew:

If you want to see it in use you'll have to install Sleepycat's
DBDXML. I cannot say this code is good (the DBD stuff especially) but I
will say it works.

To figure out the tree stuff I had to look at code and documentation for
just about every language Gtk has an API for. Perhaps if I have time
later I can flesh out the official docs on this beast.
