compile gtkmm source code

["cd rom" <cdrom205 googlemail com>]

hi, i am a newbie to gtkmm programming, i  can program c++ so now i like to experience GUI. I am fowlling the tutorial from the website, the problem that i am facing is i can't compile gtkmm source code. Like this, i am using anjuta to compile+manage gtkmm project and i append the line 
`pkg-config gtkmm -2.4 --cflags --libs` and it works for some project and for others it complains about missing headers like gtkmm.h, main.h. It drives me insane + frustration. So do you guys use any IDE for gtkmm or you guys just compile it from terminal and in either case can you explain how to set it up or do it? 
Thanks!
