gtkClipboardRequestText {RGtk2} | R Documentation

## gtkClipboardRequestText

### Description

Requests the contents of the clipboard as text. When the text is later received, it will be converted to UTF-8 if necessary, and `callback` will be called.

### Usage

    gtkClipboardRequestText(object, callback, user.data = NULL)

### Arguments

``object`` | a `GtkClipboard`
``callback`` | a function to call when the text is received, or the retrieval fails. (It will always be called one way or the other.)
``user.data`` | user data to pass to `callback`.

### Details

The `text` parameter to `callback` will contain the resulting text if the request succeeded, or `NULL` if it failed. This could happen for various reasons, in particular if the clipboard was empty or if the contents of the clipboard could not be converted into text form.
