#### Description [src]

Gets emitted when the user initiates a text deletion.

The ::delete-from-cursor signal is a keybinding signal.

If the `type` is `GTK_DELETE_CHARS`, GTK deletes the selection if there is one, otherwise it deletes the requested number of characters.

The default bindings for this signal are `Delete` for deleting a character, `Ctrl`+`Delete` for deleting a word and `Ctrl`+`Backspace` for deleting a word backwards.

Default handler: The default handler is called after the handlers added via `g_signal_connect()`.
Signal can be directly emitted on objects from user code
Available since: 4.0
