<a name="GtkEditable.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>The <a class="link" href="GtkEditable.html" title="GtkEditable"><span class="type">GtkEditable</span></a> interface is an interface which should be implemented by
text editing widgets, such as <a class="link" href="GtkEntry.html" title="GtkEntry"><span class="type">GtkEntry</span></a> and <a class="link" href="GtkSpinButton.html" title="GtkSpinButton"><span class="type">GtkSpinButton</span></a>. 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.</p>
<p>As an example of the latter usage, by connecting
the following handler to <a class="link" href="GtkEditable.html#GtkEditable-insert-text" title="The “insert-text” signal"><span class="type">“insert-text”</span></a>, an application
can convert all entry into a widget into uppercase.</p>
