Hi Johannes,

	you can use gtk_text_iter_forward_word_end() and
gtk_text_iter_backward_word_start().

I am very happy to hear that you are working on a SourceView-based
editor plugin for anjuta and I'd love to hear your plans and the issues
you encounter with GtkSourceView. I am also sure that there could be a
good deal of code that you could share with gedit. Do you use irc? feel
free to join #gedit on irc.gnome.org to discuss any question.


ciao
