Re: Changing popup menu of GtkSourceView

[Mitko Haralanov <voidtrance gmail com>]

Yes, I got that far as well. However, the question is a bit more
involved. How do find out which menu item corresponds to entries that
I don't want? I could start doing string compares against the menu
item name but that gets tricky with the underscore/keyboard shortcut
notation. For example: if I were to compare the string "_Copy"
expecting to find the Copy menu item but the implementation has
changed the item string to be "C_opy", it just breaks.

As I mentioned, "populate-popup" (as the name implies) seems more
meant to *add* items, not necessarily remove.

Thank you,
