GTK+

The runtime environment necessary for applications like GIMP.

GTK was designed in a start to be able to develop the graphic user interface for GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), but as time has gone by it has evolved and expanded to such a level that it has become the development environment based on objects used by a large array of applications developed to work on various platforms.

  As the use of free applications grows each day, many of which have been developed using GTK+, it becomes necessary for the majority of users to install the libraries that integrate it to be able to use these programs without any problems.

  Thanks to the GTK+ 2 Runtime Environment we will be able to enjoy quite a few applications (like K-3D, Chromium, Pidgin or VMware Player) with total stability and the best possible performance, managing to exploit the full power of our computer to the maximum.

  What's more, by installing an optional application from the developers website, we will have the possibility to change the theme of any program that has been developed using GTK+.

  Therefore, if you use any application based on GTK+ and you want to be sure that you have it fully updated, download and install GTK+ 2 Runtime Environment.
