Hi, @xlab.

Unfortunately I did find this from the project documentation either from posted issues.

Can anyone tell for the nob like me, please?

We put any helpers that improve usability of Nuklear in that file. For example, many Nuklear configuration options should be set as a private fields of an inner C struct, e.g. https://github.com/golang-ui/nuklear/pull/54 or someone need to read the state that can only be accessed using inner fields of C struct https://github.com/golang-ui/nuklear/pull/47

So etc.go contains manually written setters and getters. Hopefully this explains well :)
