The following example cuts, copies, or deletes segments from an array of streams. The cut and copied streams are merged into a new file and placed on the clipboard. The functions used include EditStreamClone, EditStreamCopy, and EditStreamCut.
// Global variables
// gcpavi - count of streams in an AVI file
// gapavi[] - array of stream-interface pointers, used as data source
// gapaviSel[] - stream-interface pointers of edited streams
// galSelStart[] - edit starting point in each stream
// galSelLen[] - length of edit to make in each stream
// gapaviTemp[] - array of stream-interface pointers put on clipboard
//
// Comment:
// The editable streams in gapaviSel have been
// initialized with CreateEditableStream.
//
