Hello, are there any man pages for gtk2.0? If yes, could someone please teach me how to install them??

Thanks, alex

googled for "gtk+ 2 documentation", found this: http://www.gtk.org/documentation.html

For future reference: google is your friend.

Thanks Matthew, google IS my friend and I found lots of sites with gtk documentation, manuals, tutorials and examples. I asked specifically about man pages that are installed locally, i.e. I would like to do a
"man gtk_init" and get something, just like when you do a "man strcmp".

Thanks again, alex

Just did a quick check didn't find gtk_init, but I did man gtk-chtheme and got a good man page returned.
I'm running gnu/ubuntu 7.10 of course your mileage may vary

Using aptitude to search for gtk2 and grepping for "doc" finds a few packages, one of which is libgtk2.0-doc. It's not manual pages, but a bunch of locally installed html files into /usr/share/doc/libgtk2.0-doc.
