Hi. I want to have a thorough and well-formed understanding of how to
use gtk+, which I'm not quite getting from the API. What would be the
best book I can buy right now? The most up-to-date book I see is
Foundations of GTK+ Development (2007) but not having a lot of money to
experiment with, I

I am afraid to disappoint you, but in this case books will not help much.
GTK+ was changed significantly comparing to GTK+ from the 2007.
The best way to start learning is to read a documentation, play with demos
and tutorials, examine other non-complex projects. If you are able to
Hi,

GtkTreeView filetype:c
Or in Vala with this :
Gtk.TreeView filetype:vala
Then you have a huge book with tons of sample code.
