Hi!

menu_edit_copy() is your callback function that you have to provide
which gets called when the associated menu item is selected.

Its prototype is a GtkItemFactoryCallback.

void menu_edit_copy(gpointer data, guint action, GtkWidget *widget)
{
        /*
        add your code over here to collect the retrive the data
        from some widget and place it on the clipboard.
        */
}

Hope this helps.
