Re: gtk.gdk.threads_init and paste

I'm using trunk now!

I configured abiword with:
configure --enable-dynamic --enable-plugins="loadbindings"

And pyabiword with just no extra options.

It seems the behaviour with pasting is exactly the same.

In that case there would be no effect if I also call
"gtk.gdk.threads_init". I think there is no problem if it is
initialized two times...

Anyway I have other parts of the program that depend on the gtk
multiple-thread feature and they are not working well if I don't call
gtk.gdk.threads_init, even if the program also uses an abiword.Canvas.

Please run the following demonstration program:

It has a second button, "paste2", that will get the content of the
clipboard and insert it in the canvas with the insert_data function.
And it looks it is working that way... at least this simple demo
program works. But I have another larger program that dont :-(

So... i'm confused.

If you send a SIGUSR1 to the program it will paste in the canvas. This
is to test the threads_enter/leave functions.
