 Sets the static text label and updates the controls size to exactly fit the
 label unless the control has wxST\_NO\_AUTORESIZE flag.
 
+This function allows to set decorated static label text on platforms which
+support it (currently only GTK+ 2). For the other platforms, the markup is
+ignored.
+
+The supported tags are:
+
+\twocolwidtha{5cm}
+\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
+\twocolitem{<b>}{bold text}
+\twocolitem{<big>}{bigger text}
+\twocolitem{<i>}{italic text}

+\end{twocollist}
+
+Note that the string must be well-formed (e.g. all tags must be correctly closed)
+otherwise it can be not shown correctly or at all.
+
+Also note that you need to escape the following special characters:

+\twocolwidtha{5cm}
+\begin{twocollist}\itemsep=0pt
+\twocolitem{\textbf{Special character}}{\textbf{Escape as}}
+\twocolitem{\texttt{&}}{\texttt{&amp;} or as \texttt{&&}}

+\twocolitem{\texttt{<}}{\texttt{&lt;}}
+\twocolitem{\texttt{>}}{\texttt{&gt;}}
+\end{twocollist}
+
+The non-escaped ampersand \texttt{&} characters are interpreted as
+mnemonics; see \helpref{wxControl::SetLabel}{wxcontrolsetlabel}.
