Thanks, James. That does the trick. Life is good again :-)
I couldn't find the set_alignment method when reading the docs for GtkLables
in the GTK reference manual at
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/index.html
Is there a better place for me to read about the various methods that are
available for the common widgets?
