Word wrap in TextView

Is there any way of setting a window width to say 80 characters using gtk.WORD_CHAR for the textview widget? I turned on word wrap in WORD mode, and the window shrunk to about 10 words wide.

 

The setup is:

text2 = gtk.TextView(buffer=None)
   text2.set_editable(FALSE)
   text2.set_cursor_visible(FALSE)
   val = gtk.WRAP_WORD
   text2.set_wrap_mode(val)

 

Thanks.
