GTK+
GTK+ (formerly GIMP Toolkit, sometimes incorrectly termed the GNOME Toolkit) is a cross-platformwidget toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces. It is licensed under the terms of the LGPL, allowing both free and proprietary software to use it. It is one of the most popular toolkits for the Wayland and X11 windowing systems, along with Qt.
Software architecture
The GTK+ library contains a set of graphical control elements (widgets), version 3.13.3 contains 203 active and 37 deprecated widgets. GTK+ is an object-oriented widget toolkit written in the C programming language; it uses GObject, that is the GLib object system, for the object orientation. While GTK+ is primarily targeted at windowing systems based upon X11 and Wayland, it works on other platforms, including Microsoft Windows (interfaced with the Windows API), and Mac OS X (interfaced with Quartz). There is also an HTML5 back-end called Broadway.
GTK+ can be configured to change the look of the widgets drawn; this is done using different display engines. Several display engines exist which try to emulate the look of the native widgets on the platform in use.
Sharp (Angela Winbush album)
Sharp is the debut studio album by American R&B singer Angela Winbush, after she left the duo Rene & Angela. The album was released in 1987 and peaked at #7 on the Billboard R&B Albums chart; the album also peaked at #81 on the Billboard 200. The album spawned four singles which were all commercially successful on the Billboard R&B singles chart, including the album's lead single "Angel" which peaked at #1 on the R&B Singles charts.
On the vinyl pressing, tracks 1–5 were known as the "Slammin' Side", while tracks 6–9 were known as the "Quiet Storm Side".

Sharp (crater)
Sharp is a lunar impact crater located to the west of the Sinus Iridum bay of the Mare Imbrium, beyond the Montes Jura range. To the southwest is the crater Mairan. Because of its location and foreshortening, Sharp appears elliptical whereas the crater rim is actually circular.
Sharp is surrounded by a rugged region of mounts and rises. Ridges are joined to the north and south ends of the rim. The crater has a low central peak at the midpoint of the floor. Between Sharp and Sharp A is an unnamed sinuous rille. The more distant Rima Sharp is located on the Mare Frigoris to the northwest.
Satellite craters
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Sharp.

Ghost Trackers
Ghost Trackers (also known as GTK) is a children's reality show created by Chris Gudgeon on HBO that was previously aired on Discovery Kids Canada, & YTV. It ran for fifty-two episodes in four seasons (thirteen episodes per season) from 2005-2008.
Show summary
Middle-school age contestants compete for the title of "top tracker" by investigating supposedly haunted places armed with "ghost tracking technology." Previously hidden cameras record each contestant's progress as they measure changes in temperature and electromagnetic fields. Their fellow trackers are able to watch and rate the performances, while sound effects and spooky music accompany stories of hauntings told by host Joe MacLeod. The competition follows a standard bracket/elimination process, although wild-card trackers with high scores have the opportunity to jump back in during later rounds.

GTK (TV series)
GTK was an Australian popular music TV series produced and broadcast by ABC Television.
History
The series title was an acronym of the phrase "Get To Know". GTK is one of several popular music programs produced by the ABC, and like the later establishment of Double Jay, GTK was created to address the perception that the Australian youth audience was being poorly served by commercial radio and TV and that international music and especially Australian popular music was allegedly being ignored by commercial TV and radio at that time.
GTK premiered on 4 August 1969 and ran until 1974, after which it was superseded by the weekly show Countdown. The first series of GTK was directed by TV and event director Ric Birch. Because colour television was not introduced in Australia until early 1975, most of GTK was shot on black-and-white film or videotape, although some segments of programs ca. 1974 are known to have been shot in colour.
GTK ran for ten minutes and was broadcast daily from Monday to Thursday, at 6.30 pm just before the ABC's rural soap opera Bellbird. GTK's magazine-style format included interviews, reports, music film-clips (music videos) and occasional footage of local and visiting international acts in concert.
