See Sven's reply. He has a good idea on this option.

Yes, I was suggesting the most simple method first. You can get "fancy" by
using resource files to specify the fonts/colors/etc. (or do it by hand).

You could also use the text widget and specify different colors/fonts for
lines of text. I believe that GTK+2 makes this a bit easier than GTK+1.x.
