PHP-GTK Community : a community site for PHP-GTK

The PHP-GTK community site was upgraded from Drupal 5 at long last, after it got hacked with minimal damage in April. That long overdue upgrade was an occasion to update both Drupal core and contrib code and the site custom code to more recent versions and higher quality/security levels. It is always humbling to revisit one's code 5 years later and see how what seemed like a good idea one day may appear like something one would never have written, in retrospect.

Damage and recovery

This is a function to print a 2 dimension matrix in a Gtk Textview (Gtk Buffer). The function will take care of putting together correctly all row and coloumn labels. A label for the corner of the matrix is considered too.
A title can be given as well. As for gtk widgets only the buffer is asked, all the rest are taken care by the function. A fixed coloumn width is assumed.

Hello,

We all run in php-gtk site to seek documentation for different methods or classes but often there is no helpful description there. Also the try and error approach is not always what you want if you are in a hurry.

Fortunately you can use other web sites that refer to gtk for other languages in order to get help.

PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language, GTK is a cross-platform widget toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces and PHP-GTK is a set of language bindings for PHP which allow GTK+ GUI applications to be written in PHP.

I have been working on PHP-GTK for some-time, but it seems that PHP-GTK applications crash easily, they are slow and are not according to desktop application expectations. Also I have found a lot of criticism regarding it, like:

Hello!
