The practice I have found useful is to make extensive use of GObject. I normally define a GObject for my application let this hold variables that would normally be defined globally, as well as references to other objects that the applications needs. I originally saw this style of coding in Gossip[1], but I am sure that it has been used in many other applications. The code for Gossip is very clean and easy to read. Keith.
