Start with gdk_event_dispatch() in gdk/x11/gdkevents-x11.c. It is also instructive to compile Gtk+ with --enable-debug=yes and then do for instance GDK_DEBUG=events ./someprogram > does this happen once for the main "window" and gtk repaints > the widgets in an hirarchial order or do the widgets which are windows > themself get seperate expose events delivered? Widgets with their own windows receive their own expose events. Also have a look at http://primates.ximian.com/~federico/misc/gtk-drawing-model/ which explains the basic concepts.
