-The gimp toolkit. A set of libraries for building complex X11
-user interfaces. Used by e.g. Gimp and Gnome.
+GTK+ is a multi-platform toolkit for creating graphical user
+interfaces. Offering a complete set of widgets, GTK+ is suitable for
+projects ranging from small one-off tools to complete application
+suites.

+GTK+ has been designed from the ground up to support a range of
+languages, not only C/C++. Using GTK+ from languages such as Perl and
+Python (especially in combination with the Glade GUI builder) provides
+an effective method of rapid application development.
