setting default text color and font with GtkText

[Marcus Brubaker <spoon elpaso net>]

How do you properly set the default font and text color for GtkText?  I
know that you can set the background colour via gdk_window_set_background.
I've looked through source and header files for about an hour and I
haven't been able to come up with anything.  Thanks.
