I need pretty simple drawing stuff... lines, icons, maybe

load the images).


Thanks.


For openGL it would be better to use gtk.GLArea, which is 
included in gtk since 3.16. You can use the GLCore demo as an 
example:


https://github.com/gtkd-developers/GtkD/blob/master/demos/gl/core/CoreGL.d

GtkDGL wraps gtkglext3 which is currently not maintained, and 
no longer has any binaries available.


Thanks, I'll try it.
