I've also tried this it doesnt seem to 
work either.  But at least I don't get a 
seg fault.  It looks as though I might 
be getting a pointer values, maybe.

function encrypt_textarea_0()
    object str
    integer len
    integer start

    start =0
    len = gtk_text_get_length(txt)
    str=gtk_editable_get_chars(txt,start,len)

    printf(1,"%s",str)
    return NULL
end function
constant encrypt_textarea=call_back(routine_id("encrypt_textarea_0"))
