--  This widget is an abstract widget designed to support the common
--  functionalities of all widgets for editing text. It provides general
--  services to manipulate 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.

   --  Signals  --
   ---------------

   --  <signals>
   --  The following new signals are defined for this widget:
   --
   --  - "insert_text"
   --    procedure Handler (Widget   : access Gtk_Editable_Record'Class;
   --                       Text     : in UTF8_String;
   --                       Length   : in Gint;
   --                       Position : in Gint_Access);
   --
   --    Emitted when some text is inserted inside the widget by the
   --    user. The default handler inserts the text into the widget.
   --    By connecting a handler to this signal, and then by stopping
   --    the signal with Gtk.Handlers.Emit_Stop_By_Name, it is possible
   --    to modify the inserted text, or even prevent it from being
   --    inserted.
   --    Position.all should be modified by the callback, and indicates
   --    the new position of the cursor after the text has been inserted.
   --
   --  - "delete_text"
   --    procedure Handler (Widget    : access Gtk_Editable_Record'Class;
   --                       Start_Pos : in Gint;
   --                       End_Pos   : in Gint);
   --
   --    Emitted when some text is deleted by the user. As for the
   --    "insert-text" handler, it is possible to override the default
   --    behavior by connecting a handler to this signal, and then
   --    stopping the signal.
   --
   --  - "changed"
   --    procedure Handler (Widget : access Gtk_Editable_Record'Class);

   --    Called when the contents of Widget has changed
