>Compile this program using the same linking arguments as our first
example. You'll notice this time there is no easy way to exit the
program, you have to use your window manager or command line to kill
it. A good exercise for the reader would be to insert a third "Quit"
button that will exit the program. You may also wish to play with the
options to gtk_box_pack_start() while reading the next section. Try
resizing the window, and observe the behavior.</P
