Hi Peter,
I'm not sure I understand your problem correctly, but
gtk_editable_get_selection_bounds() is meant to only return the start
and end positions. If you need the selected text you could call
gtk_editable_get_chars() using the previously obtained positions.
Or maybe gtk_editable_copy_clipboard() is what you want to use? All of
them are explained here:
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/unstable/GtkEditable.html
If I misunderstood you, please tell me.
Cheers!
Conny
