All three of these calls are fully documented in the "Includes &
Autodocs" Rom Kernel Manual.  (Btw, it's RemoveGadgets() - plural)

AddGadget( struct Window *, struct Gadget *, long pos_in_list )
RemoveGadget( struct Window *, struct Gadget * )
RefreshGadgets( struct Gadget *, struct Window *, struct Requester *)
