I want to draw a number of lines in an Gtk Window with Ada.
which kind of View should I use (Textview??, doesn't look logical). I need 
to create the basic User interface with Glade.
I looked at Cairo as was suggested in a Gtk forum but I thank that is 
shooting with a canon at a fly.
I just need to create some elementary figures like straight lines in 
different thickness and characters, randomly positioned, in different 
colors.
Furthermore I need to read the exact position of the mouse.
