+ * @short_description: Managing recently used files
+ * @See_Also: #GBookmarkFile, #GtkSettings, #GtkRecentChooser
+ *
+ * #GtkRecentManager provides a facility for adding, removing and
+ * looking up recently used files. Each recently used file is
+ * identified by its URI, and has meta-data associated to it, like
+ * the names and command lines of the applications that have
+ * registered it, the number of time each application has registered
+ * the same file, the mime type of the file and whether the file
+ * should be displayed only by the applications that have
+ * registered it.
+ *
+ * <note><para>The recently used files list is per user.</para></note>
+ *
+ * The #GtkRecentManager acts like a database of all the recently
+ * used files. You can create new #GtkRecentManager objects, but
+ * it is more efficient to use the default manager created by GTK+.
+ *
+ * Adding a new recently used file is as simple as:
+ *
+ * |[
+ * GtkRecentManager *manager;
+ *
+ * manager = gtk_recent_manager_get_default ();
+ * gtk_recent_manager_add_item (manager, file_uri);
+ * ]|
+ *
+ * The #GtkRecentManager will try to gather all the needed information
+ * from the file itself through GIO.
+ *
+ * Looking up the meta-data associated with a recently used file
+ * given its URI requires calling gtk_recent_manager_lookup_item():
+ *
+ * |[
+ * GtkRecentManager *manager;
+ * GtkRecentInfo *info;
+ * GError *error = NULL;
+ *
+ * manager = gtk_recent_manager_get_default ();
+ * info = gtk_recent_manager_lookup_item (manager, file_uri, &error);
+ * if (error)
+ * {
+ * g_warning ("Could not find the file: %s", error->message);
+ * g_error_free (error);
+ * }
+ * else
+ * {
+ * /* Use the info object */
+ * gtk_recent_info_unref (info);
+ * }
+ * ]|
+ *
+ * In order to retrieve the list of recently used files, you can use
+ * gtk_recent_manager_get_items(), which returns a list of #GtkRecentInfo
+ * structures.
+ *
+ * A #GtkRecentManager is the model used to populate the contents of
+ * one, or more #GtkRecentChooser implementations.
+ *
+ * <note><para>The maximum age of the recently used files list is
+ * controllable through the #GtkSettings:gtk-recent-files-max-age
+ * property.</para></note>
+ *
+ * Recently used files are supported since GTK+ 2.10.
