I think the easiest way would be to create a new button without a label,
and then pack the label into it (like in the button example).  Then use:

void gtk_label_set (GtkLabel  *label,
                    char      *str);

to change the string.  Use the GTK_LABEL() macro to cast the GtkWidget for
the first argument.

(There's just so much to cover in this tutorial.... )

Regards,

Ian
