One option is to use a combination of:

   - svg filters - See
   http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/IG/resources/svgprimer.html#filters
   - librsvg - See:
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/librsvg/2.34/(This is probably
part of your distribution)
   - cairo+librsvg - See: http://macslow.thepimp.net/?page_id=23

Here is another page talking about text effects with svg filters:

   - http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Filter_Effects

You can actually use inkscape to build your svg filter, export the resulting
file, and then easily use it on your own text.

Hope this helps!
