There is no such beast in GTK to my knowledge. And for good reason too. It's a usability nightmare. The only GUI that has it is MS Windows, and less and less programs use it because it's just so bad from the user's perspective. The correct way to implement the functionality of MDI without the mess of windows within windows is to use the tabbed document interface, or just separate toplevel windows. As an example of this, MS Word used to have a MDI interface. However it proved to be such a bad design that from Word 2000 on up (to XP currently), there is *no* MDI interface used. Instead each document lives in it's own complete Word window (toplevel). A very sensible decision. Personally, I like the tabbed interface the programs like Galeon, Kdevelop and others use.
