OK, the files you are interested in are in src/dispmanager. It is
gtkText::realize in gtkText.cc that does the text justifying using
gdk_text_width to calculate the length of a string.

May I also mention gtk-XmHTML, which is a gtk object used to display html,
we don't use it due to some restriction in it, but maby you can... it is 
part of the gnome-libs package, available with the rest of Gnome at 
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME
