The cell renderer should be or be derived from a GtkCellRendererText.
The GtkCellRendererText has an ellipsize property that you can set. If
the text isn't allowed to be ellipsized, then the minimum size of the
column is going to be the length of the longest text row.

Hope you are enjoying your first GTK app :)
