Re: GtkText

[Stuart Gilbert <stu better domain name>]

I didn't make myself very clear before, I suggested all the other 
widgets because of the following:
"GtkText is deprecated and unsupported. It is known to be buggy. To use 
it, you must define the symbol GTK_ENABLE_BROKEN prior to including the 
GTK+ header files." GtkTextView is recommended in it's place though.

If you have to use GtkText then:

gtk_text_set_point(GtkTextWidget, 0); // Set the cursor at the start.
guint len = gtk_text_get_length(GtkTextWidget); // Get length.
gtk_text_forward_delete(GtkTextWidget, len); // Delete from start to end.

That might be of some assistance, but I wouldn't advise using GtkText 
anyway.
