Re: [gtkmm] Filling a TextView from a text file?

[Barnaby Gray <bee pickle me uk>]

Use istream::get or similar to read blocks of data from the text file
and insert it into the TextView - obviously you'll have to be careful
with encodings though, and avoiding splitting utf-8 characters between
blocks (in which case reading line by line, might be easier).
