You don't mention which programming language you are trying, I'll assume
it's c You may be interested in Python if you are coming from Java
Lots of RedHat (therefore Fedora) utilities are written in Python using
PyGTK, it has wrappers / interfaces for lots of interesting things like
GTK, GNOME etc plus good integration with Linux through.
so for example os.getenv("HOME") os.system("ls -al")

http://www.pygtk.org/
Hello World with Python and GTK
http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial/examples/helloworld.py
There are also dedicated Python and GTK mailing lists / news groups
where you will find lots of answers
