Hello Marc,
to apply formatting to portions of a text buffer you can use a TextTag
like this:
TextView textView = new TextView ();
TextBuffer buffer = textView .Buffer;
buffer .Text = "abcdefghijk";
TextTag tagBold = new TextTag ("bold");
tagBold .Weight = Pango .Weight .Bold;
buffer .TagTable .Add (tagBold);
TextIter iter1 = buffer .GetIterAtOffset (3);
TextIter iter2 = buffer .GetIterAtOffset (6);
buffer .ApplyTag (tagBold, iter1, iter2);
You can find a longer example in the GtkDemo application that comes with
GTK#. The relevant source file is also here:
http://code.google.com/p/slickr-dotnet/source/browse/trunk/SlickrGtk/DemoTextView.cs?r=2
And there is a good tutorial for TextView here (it's written for the
C-version of GTK+):
