Pango in GTK+-2.0

  • Used for all text
    • GtkLabel
    • GtkEntry
    • GtkTextView
  • Editing widgets know how to handle complexities
  • Font handling improvements for everybody:
    • Sane font names ("Times Bold 14")
    • Truetype and anti-aliased fonts (Xrender support)
    • GMarkup
      	label = gtk_label_new (NULL);
      	gtk_label_set_markup ("<big><i>Big Italics</i></big>\n");
  • Can use Pango directly, usually don't need to
