    <summary>Display author, documenter and translator credits for an application.</summary>
    <remarks>
      <para>The <see cref="T:Gnome.About" /> widget is used as the standard way of displaying credits in an application.
	  Typically, it will be called when a user selects the About... option from the Help menu.
	  With one simple function call, the application can then display all of the appropriate information.</para>
      <para>NOTE: The <see cref="T:Gnome.About" /> widget is destroyed automatically when the close event is called.  Therefore, it is not possible to use the same <see cref="T:Gnome.About" /> more than once.</para>
      <para>Compile the following example with: mcs GnomeAboutSample.cs -r gtk-sharp -r gnome-sharp -r gdk-sharp</para>
    </remarks>
