editorgadget and cut/copy/paste in linux

Hello old friends.

How can I perform cut/copy/paste clipboard operations with the editorgadget in linux?

I would like to support these operations from my application's toolbar and menu.

Many thanks

Looking for this?

Code:

ImportC ""
  g_signal_emit_by_name(*inst, name.p-utf8)
EndImport

g_signal_emit_by_name(GadgetID(0), "paste-clipboard")
g_signal_emit_by_name(GadgetID(0), "cut-clipboard")
g_signal_emit_by_name(GadgetID(0), "copy-clipboard")

0 being your EditorGadget.

Exactly! Thank you Remi.

I also needed a couple of extra signals which I looked up :

Code:

g_signal_emit_by_name(GadgetID(0), "backspace")
g_signal_emit_by_name(GadgetID(0), "select-all")
