The Gnome.About widget is used as the standard way of displaying credits in an application. Typically, it will be called when a user selects the About... option from the Help menu. With one simple function call, the application can then display all of the appropriate information.
NOTE: The Gnome.About widget is destroyed automatically when the close event is called. Therefore, it is not possible to use the same Gnome.About more than once.
Compile the following example with: mcs GnomeAboutSample.cs -r gtk-sharp -r gnome-sharp -r gdk-sharp
