Building my own utilities

Hey, I just recently got rid of everything gnome, cause I decided I don't like it anymore, and I'm happily using Compiz standalone for my WM. What I want to know is, how hard would it be to create my own utilities (battery monitor, volume mixer and other little things like that) and can someone help point me in the right direction?

Gnome, and I think Compiz, use the GTK+ toolkit to build GUI apps and applets. You need to read the developer's documentation, available online from the gnome foundation.
