Yes, I've read this in the Gtk documentation.

Is there a good GtkAda documentation (with examples) somewhere ?
I've found a french tutorial. Very instructive but incomplete and a 
little bit outdated.
I also read Test code in GtkAda repository. Again, useful but very 
incomplete.

When I need a functionality I start to look at what already exists.
Key_File is what I need. Why rewrite it myself ?
And I currently don't have the knowledge to write it myself.

I'm learning Ada at home, on my spare time. And lazy I am. For sure ;)
