Hi,
I want my application to be aware of any tag existing at cursor location in a
GtkTextView.
This can easily be done when positionning the cursor with a click by linking
the "event" signal of a GtkTextTag.
But what if the user move the cursor with the keyboard?
I'm trying to link the "cursor-move" event of a GtkTextView with a callback
function that :
read the cursor position, then
gtk_text_buffer_set_iter_at_offset ( cursor_position ), then
gtk_text_iter_get_tags ( iter )
but I don't know how to pass the first step ( I reviewed and reviewed the API
doc without finding the answer)
It is not possible to maintain the offset value in my callback functions,
because of the <ctrl>-<left/right key> word boundary move.
Steph
