Subject: | Lack of g_markup_escape_text() function makes using Pango more difficult |
There's a Glib function named g_markup_escape_text(), that escapes special Pango markup characters from a string, so that it can be placed into Gtk2 widgets and will be displayed literally:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/glib/glib-Simple-XML-Subset-Parser.html#g-markup-escape-text
This function unfortunately isn't provided by the Glib CPAN module.
