hi;
GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD is not available in the introspection data
because it's a macro that evaluates to a complex expression, and
cannot be parsed by the introspection scanner.
we are going to add simple wrappers for gtk_clipboard_get() in GTK+
3.14, and those will be introspectable correctly. in theory, you could
use `Gdk.atom_intern('CLIPBOARD', true)`, but in practice the GdkAtom
type is also not introspectable because it's an opaque pointer.
as for the documentation: we are in the process of generating all API
references for all bindings based on introspection using the
introspection data. we recently had a hackfest in Berlin on this very
topic (amongst others) so you should be able to expect results and
announcements soon.
ciao,
Emmanuele.
