/**
 * A GHashTable provides associations between keys and values which is
 * optimized so that given a key, the associated value can be found
 * very quickly.
 *
 * Note that neither keys nor values are copied when inserted into the
 * GHashTable, so they must exist for the lifetime of the GHashTable.
 * This means that the use of static strings is OK, but temporary
 * strings (i.e. those created in buffers and those returned by GTK+
 * widgets) should be copied with g_strdup() before being inserted.
 *
 * If keys or values are dynamically allocated, you must be careful to
 * ensure that they are freed when they are removed from the
 * GHashTable, and also when they are overwritten by new insertions
 * into the GHashTable. It is also not advisable to mix static strings
 * and dynamically-allocated strings in a GHashTable, because it then
 * becomes difficult to determine whether the string should be freed.
 *
 * To create a GHashTable, use g_hash_table_new().
 *
 * To insert a key and value into a GHashTable, use
 * g_hash_table_insert().
 *
 * To lookup a value corresponding to a given key, use
 * g_hash_table_lookup() and g_hash_table_lookup_extended().
 *
 * g_hash_table_lookup_extended() can also be used to simply
 * check if a key is present in the hash table.
 *
 * To remove a key and value, use g_hash_table_remove().
 *
 * To call a function for each key and value pair use
 * g_hash_table_foreach() or use a iterator to iterate over the
 * key/value pairs in the hash table, see GHashTableIter.
 *
 * To destroy a GHashTable use g_hash_table_destroy().
 *
 * A common use-case for hash tables is to store information about a
 * set of keys, without associating any particular value with each
 * key. GHashTable optimizes one way of doing so: If you store only
 * key-value pairs where key == value, then GHashTable does not
 * allocate memory to store the values, which can be a considerable
 * space saving, if your set is large. The functions
 * g_hash_table_add() and g_hash_table_contains() are designed to be
 * used when using GHashTable this way.
