    extern      guint GPE_GNOME_SCALING;
    void        init_spacing                    (void);

    gchar*      gpe_get_catindent               (void);
    guint       gpe_get_border                  (void);
    guint       gpe_get_boxspacing              (void);

## Description

For creating graphical user interfaces with an unified look and feel it is important to have a set of functions to provide spacing information. The GPE spacing functions provide a basic set of functions for determining the most frquently used sizes for GUI development.

## Details

### SCALING_SIZE

    #define     SCALING_SIZE

### GPE_GNOME_SCALING

    extern guint GPE_GNOME_SCALING;

### init_spacing ()

    void        init_spacing                    (void);

### gpe_get_catspacing ()
