Sorry, if I didn't express myself well in the last e-mail.
Now let me elaborate on it.

my code segment is like:

typedef struct{
 glong row;
 glong col;
}cursor_position;

void
cursor_moved(VteTerminal *vte, gpointer original_position)
{
 cursor_position *orig_pos = (cursor_position*)original_position;
 /* get the cursor position */
 glong col=0, row=0;
 vte_terminal_get_cursor_position(vte, &col, &row);
 gchar *content = vte_terminal_get_text_range(vte,
                          orig_pos->row,
                          orig_pos->col,
                          row,
                          col,
                          is_selected,
                          NULL,
                          NULL);
printf("Received from the Child %s\n", content); */* here,
                                                                       
* @content contains both the output from the child
                                                                       
* AND the input from the user.
                                                                       
* What I want is just the output from the child.
                                                                        */*
g_free(content);
}

cursor_position *init_pos = g_new0(cursor_position, 1);
g_signal_connect(G_OBJECT(terminal), "cursor-moved",  
G_CALLBACK(cursor_moved), init_pos);
g_free(init_pos);
