Notes: * This is an unstable development release. It has had only little testing and there are unfinished features and plenty of bugs in this release. It should definitively not be used in production. * Installing this version will overwrite your existing copy of GTK+ 2.16. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall GTK+ 2.16. * GTK+ 2.18 will be source and binary compatible with the GTK+ 2.16 series; however, the new API additions are not yet finalized, so there may be incompatibilities between this release and the final 2.18 release. * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org. What is GTK+ ============ GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application suites. GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides an effective method of rapid application development. GTK+ is free software and part of the GNU Project. However, the licensing terms for GTK+, the GNU LGPL, allow it to be used by all developers, including those developing proprietary software, without any license fees or royalties.
