A while back I put together a little harness intended to help me get
started with features extracted from TestGTK.
Having found something useful (e.g. na example of a scrolling text
window), this harness lets you extract that one feature from testgtk and
build it as a simple standalone application, focussing ONLY on the
selected feature.
It's a starting point for working with it and incorporating it into your
own code.
Probably no interest to experienced Gtkada programmers, but I found it
helpful as a beginner.
