Thanks in advance!

You'll have to give us more info..What distro are you running and what can't find GTK+?

I use UBUNTU 10.10

Well it should be a matter of downloading the proper package and then using the proper esoteric compile line like

gcc -Wall -g helloworld.c -o helloworld `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0` `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0`

Please note that it uses back tips ` not single quotes '...Back ticks are located on the upper left side of your key board.
