Since that's pretty complicated, let me point out, to copy a string to
the clipboard, all you need is:
GtkClipboard *clipboard = gtk_clipboard_get (GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD);
gtk_clipboard_set_text (clipboard, "My Text", -1);
Getting the text on the clipboard can be as simple as:
char *my_text = gtk_clipboard_wait_for_text (clipboard);
/* use text */
g_free (my_text);
[ Note, gtk_clipboard_wait_for_text() runs a recursive main loop,
so any of your applications callbacks could be invoked while
it is running ]
