Command line for compiling

[Ian Davidson]

Thanks Tim,

You were right to guess that I was using Gtk+ 1.2.  This was not a 
deliberate choice, but based on ignorance - I did not realise that there 
were any other flavours.

I have now 'ported' my GUI to Gtk+3.0 and can make progress..Once again, 
thanks for your help.
