The GdkGC is basically a Graphich Context.  GdkGC is a wrapper around the
X Window System's GC.  I think MS Windows has something similar in the
form of Device Contexts (DC's).  The GdkGC basically has a set number of
attributes like the background color, the line stipple style, the clip
mask, etc.
