How to handle slections with gdk

[Stefan Ondrejicka <ondrej idata sk>]

Hi,

I'am writing simple program, which uses only gdk for mainpulating
selections. I want to set gdk window to own selection (text only). There
are this events to handle :
 
GDK_SELECTION_CLEAR - this means, that I loose selection (right ?)

GDK_SELECTION_REQUEST - I own selection, and someone want to retrieve it
	(but I don't know how to send the selection)

GDK_SELECTION_NOTIFY - I mean that, this is used to notify, that I'v get
	requested selection (right ?)


with function gdk_selection_owner_set() I set the window to own selection

with gdk_selection_owner_get() I will get the actual owner of selection
should i send GDK_SELECTION_CLEAR to it before using
gdk_selection_owner_set() ? If so how ?

I am reading gtkselection.c & gtkeditable.c , but I am not able to
understand it.

Is here anyone who have any example or want to explaint this.

Thank,
Stevo.
