Are you in X-Windows? Or connected via SSH/PuTTY or similar? I'm not familiar with gedit... is it a GUI application? In other words... when you copy something to the clipboard from gedit... which clipboard is it going to?

DwtEndCopyFromClipboard(3Dwt)											     DwtEndCopyFromClipboard(3Dwt)

Name
       DwtEndCopyFromClipboard	-  Notifies  the cut and paste functions that the application has completed copying an item from the clipboard and
       unlocks the clipboard.

Syntax
       int DwtEndCopyFromClipboard(display, window)
	    Display *display;
	    Window window;

Arguments
       display	 Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was returned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay.  For information on  XOpenDis-
		 play and the Display structure, see the Guide to the Xlib Library: C Language Binding.

       window	 Specifies the window ID that relates the application window to the clipboard.	The same application instance should pass the same
		 window ID to each clipboard function that it calls.

Description
       The DwtEndCopyFromClipboard function unlocks the clipboard when the application has copied all data from the clipboard.	If the application
       calls  DwtStartCopyFromClipboard,  it  must  call DwtEndCopyFromClipboard.  These two functions lock and unlock the clipboard and allow the
       application to copy data from the clipboard incrementally.

Return Values
       This function returns one of these status return constants:

       ClipboardSuccess   The function is  success-
			  ful.
       ClipboardLocked	  The	 function    failed
			  because the clipboard was
			  locked  by another appli-
			  cation.  The	application
			  can  continue to call the
			  function  with  the  same
			  parameters	until	the
			  clipboard  is   unlocked.
			  Optionally,  the applica-
			  tion can ask if the  user
			  wants  to  keep trying or
			  to give up on the  opera-
			  tion.
