Hi! this is my first message to this list. I don't know if is correct to ask this in this mailing list or in vala mailing list. I think this I more related with Gtk+ than with vala. I'm writing a gtk app in vala. I'm trying to let the user to format some text on a GtkTextView save that text on an sqlite db converted to Pango markup, so then I can show it later on a GtkLabel formated. I have to say that I'm not sure if I understand how all this things works. Where I'm stuck is trying to handle the uint8[] data that I get from Gtk.TextBuffer.serialize (...). var serialized = buffer.serialize (buffer, buffer.register_serialize_tagset (null), start, end ); Then when I try to convert that unit8[] to string I only get one line with this text GTKTEXTBUFFERCONTENTS-0001. Searching a on the web I realize that is the header of a XML. But I didn't get how to get tho other lines to parse that data to Pango markup. I hope I made my issue clear. My English is quiet limited.
