# Chapter 1. Introduction

#### 1.1. Why Gamma and GTK?

#### 1.2. Assumptions about the Reader

To use Gamma in GTK, you should have some familiarity with Gamma and GTK. Experience in object-oriented programming will also be useful.

#### 1.3. System Requirements

- Linux 2.2.5 or later.

- GTK 1.2.8.

- The SRR IPC kernel module, which includes a synchronous message passing library modeled on the QNX 4 send/receive/reply message-passing API. This module installs automatically, but requires a C compiler for the installation. You can get more information and/or download this module at the Cogent Web Site.

  | This module may not be necessary for some Gamma applications, but it is required for any use of timers, event handling, or inter-process communication.
