I'm trying to figure out what GTK version I am running. I can't find anything online for this.

If you installed gtk via the package manager, you can use Add/Remove software or Synaptic to check the gtk version.

What do you mean by "GTK version" and why do you need to know that?

as in what version number i am running on my comp. i know i have 2.something but i'm not sure which one i have. mostly interested in this for possible theme creation. plus i figured its a good thing to know. a shell command should work for this - i just can't figured out what command to use.

as to synaptic it only tells me that i have the 2.x gtk engine, etc. no relaly detailed info unless i am looking in the wrong place...

Search for libgtk2.0. You should see version 2.12.9.
