Sets the base color for a widget in a particular state.
All other style values are left untouched. The base color
is the background color used along with the text color
(see gtk_widget_modify_text()) for widgets such as GtkEntry
and GtkTextView. See also gtk_widget_modify_style().
Note that "no window" widgets (which have the GTK_NO_WINDOW flag set)
draw on their parent container's window and thus may not draw any
background themselves. This is the case for e.g. GtkLabel. To modify
the background of such widgets, you have to set the base color on their
parent; if you want to set the background of a rectangular area around
a label, try placing the label in a GtkEventBox widget and setting
the base color on that.
