<para><link

is an abstract base class that encapsulates an opaque chunk of data to
provide an object-oriented interface and a type that is registered with the
<literal>GLIB</literal> type system. A boxed type is registered with
functions that provide for the copying and freeing of the underlying data
structure - this allows PyGTK to encapsulate these as Python objects.</para>
