It's entirely possible. The TreeView widget is the one you'll be wanting
to look at to start with. Most of the columns could be CellRendererText
columns for pure text rendering, but the first one would need both a
CellRendererPixbuf and a CellRendererText in it to get the icons.

You may find that the stock TreeView code doesn't do everything you'd
need to entirely replicate Konqueror's functionality - Nautilus, I
believe, uses some kind of TreeView-based widget with lots of extra bits
to enable it to do everything it does, but TreeView will provide you
with the basics at least. I know it doesn't sound like the right widget,
but believe me, it is. Read the Programming with Gtkmm chapters on it to
get yourself started, and look at the examples in the Gtkmm source
distribution for more info.
