Thanks. I looked at Quarks and it seems they merely associated (psuedo-convert) strings to unique IDs which is not really what I want to achieve. I think that g_hash_* might work, but I was looking for something a little more opaque. In other words, I don't want to have to keep track of/pass the GHashTable* from/across functions. Perhaps I will just write a wrapper for that.
