Using Gtk+1.2.10, I connect the following function to the "key_press_event" and
then call the edit function associated with the key pressed (Note: this also
works with Gtk+1.2.8).
/* Function to catch keyboard shortcuts (i.e. sun keyboard "copy", "paste",
etc.) */
gboolean filter_edit_shortcuts(GtkWidget *calling_widget, GdkEventKey
*key_press_event, GtkWidget *window)
{
/* Sun keyboard "Copy" button */
if ( key_press_event->keyval == GDK_F16 )
{
copy_to_clipboard(calling_widget, window);
/* Do not propogate event */
return(TRUE);
}
/* Sun keyboard "Paste" button */
else if ( key_press_event->keyval == GDK_F18 )
{
paste_from_clipboard(calling_widget, window);
/* Do not propogate event */
return(TRUE);
}
/* Sun keyboard "Cut" button */
else if ( key_press_event->keyval == GDK_F20 )
{
cut_to_clipboard(calling_widget, window);
/* Do not propogate event */
return(TRUE);
}
/* Propogate event */
return(FALSE);
}
/* End of filter_edit_shortcuts() */
/* Function to copy selected focus widget text to the clipboard */
void copy_to_clipboard(GtkWidget *calling_widget, GtkWidget *window)
{
/* Declaring local variables */
GtkWidget *widget;
/* Getting the focus widget of window emitting the copy request */
if ( GTK_WINDOW(window)->focus_widget )
widget = GTK_WIDGET(GTK_WINDOW(window)->focus_widget);
else
return;
/* Checking that focus widget is capable of copy request */
if ( GTK_WIDGET_HAS_FOCUS(GTK_WIDGET(widget)) &&
GTK_IS_EDITABLE(GTK_WIDGET(widget)) )
gtk_editable_copy_clipboard(GTK_EDITABLE(widget));
}
/* End of copy_to_clipboard() */
/* Function to cut selected focus widget text to the clipboard */
void cut_to_clipboard(GtkWidget *calling_widget, GtkWidget *window)
{
/* Declaring local variables */
GtkWidget *widget;
/* Getting the focus widget of window emitting the cut request */
if ( GTK_WINDOW(window)->focus_widget )
widget = GTK_WIDGET(GTK_WINDOW(window)->focus_widget);
else
return;
/* Checking that focus widget is capable of cut request */
if ( GTK_WIDGET_HAS_FOCUS(GTK_WIDGET(widget)) &&
GTK_IS_EDITABLE(GTK_WIDGET(widget)) )
gtk_editable_cut_clipboard(GTK_EDITABLE(widget));
}
/* End of cut_to_clipboard() */
/* Function to paste text from the clipboard */
void paste_from_clipboard(GtkWidget *calling_widget, GtkWidget *window)
{
/* Declaring local variables */
GtkWidget *widget;
/* Getting the focus widget of window emitting the paste request */
if ( GTK_WINDOW(window)->focus_widget )
widget = GTK_WIDGET(GTK_WINDOW(window)->focus_widget);
else
return;
/* Checking that focus widget is capable of paste request */
if ( GTK_WIDGET_HAS_FOCUS(GTK_WIDGET(widget)) &&
GTK_IS_EDITABLE(GTK_WIDGET(widget)) )
gtk_editable_paste_clipboard(GTK_EDITABLE(widget));
}
/* End of paste_from_clipboard() */
Hope this helps.
