[pygtk] set_use_markup and gtk.SpinButton

[saeed]

First way is to specify a larger or bold font, ex:

spin.get_layout().set_font_description('Sans 10 Bold')

______________
Second way is to use pango layout markup and make the text bold, ex:

spin.connect('expose-event',lambda widget,event:
widget.get_layout().set_markup('<b>%s</b>'%widget.get_text()))


Description:
SpinButton is an Entry
and an Entry has a method get_layout() that returns the pango.Layout
used to display the entry
and a pango.Layout has a method set_markup() that that accept at least
Bold (<b>) and Underlien (<i>)
