Take a look at the executable 'gtk-demo'.  It should have been installed
with gtk's development tools; i.e. already loaded on you machine.  Hint:
double click the sample for a live preview, then look at the source

Additionally, here is a link to glinegraph, a simple line graph widget
written twice, once in gdk and again in cairo.
