/**
 * SECTION:gtkeditable
 * @Short_description: Interface for text-editing widgets
 * @Title: GtkEditable
 *
 * The #GtkEditable interface is an interface which should be implemented by
 * text editing widgets, such as #GtkEntry and #GtkSpinButton. It contains functions
 * for generically manipulating an editable widget, a large number of action
 * signals used for key bindings, and several signals that an application can
 * connect to to modify the behavior of a widget.
 *
 * As an example of the latter usage, by connecting
 * the following handler to #GtkEditable::insert-text, an application
 * can convert all entry into a widget into uppercase.
 *
 * <example>
 * <title>Forcing entry to uppercase.</title>
 * <programlisting>
 * #include &lt;ctype.h&gt;
 *
 * void
 * insert_text_handler (GtkEditable &ast;editable,
 *                      const gchar &ast;text,
 *                      gint         length,
 *                      gint        &ast;position,
 *                      gpointer     data)
 * {
 *   gchar &ast;result = g_utf8_strup (text, length);
 *
 *   g_signal_handlers_block_by_func (editable,
 *                                (gpointer) insert_text_handler, data);
 *   gtk_editable_insert_text (editable, result, length, position);
 *   g_signal_handlers_unblock_by_func (editable,
 *                                      (gpointer) insert_text_handler, data);
 *
 *   g_signal_stop_emission_by_name (editable, "insert_text");
 *
 *   g_free (result);
