Is there a way to set the align = align.center property to the text
displayed inside a text area?

No, the TextArea has no Alignment property. Why do you need that?

Well, I'm using a text area to display a text file. ( a copy of the
GPL to be exact) and in my form, the text area is just as wide as the
form itself... leaving of couse about 8 pixels on either side for a
nice border effect.

But the text shows up as left-aligned... I'd like to make it look
center-aligned if possible.

If you don't need to edit the text, do not use a TextArea, but a TextLabel or
a read-only TextEdit (if you use gb.qt).

I have to use gb.gtk on this one... strickly gtk.

I guess a text label inside a scrollview will do
