If you are specifically interested in the drawing area, check out the example
   examples/gtk_examples/scribble.adb

in the GtkAda distribution.

It gives examples on how to create and how to draw on a drawing area, the whole
thing being handled through mouse events.

For a more general widget, you should also have a look at GtkAda.Canvas (see
the testgtk demo), which might or not save you some work.
