Moves up to count visible cursor positions.

Moves iter to the start of the previous visible line.

Moves backward to the previous word start.

Calls gtk_text_iter_backward_word_start() up to count times.

Considering the default editability of the buffer, and tags that affect editability, determines whether text inserted at iter would be editable.

A qsort()-style function that returns negative if lhs is less than rhs, positive if lhs is greater than rhs, and 0 if they’re equal.

Creates a dynamically-allocated copy of an iterator.

Returns whether the character at iter is within an editable region of text.

Returns TRUE if iter points to the start of the paragraph delimiter characters for a line.

Determines whether iter ends a sentence.

Returns TRUE if tag is toggled off at exactly this point.

Determines whether iter ends a natural-language word.

Tests whether two iterators are equal, using the fastest possible mechanism.

Moves iter forward by one character offset.

Moves count characters if possible.

Moves iter forward by a single cursor position.

Moves up to count cursor positions.

Advances iter, calling pred on each character.

Moves iter to the start of the next line.

Moves count lines forward, if possible.

Searches forward for str.

Moves forward to the next sentence end.

Calls gtk_text_iter_forward_sentence_end() count times.

Moves iter forward to the “end iterator”, which points one past the last valid character in the buffer.

Moves the iterator to point to the paragraph delimiter characters.

Moves forward to the next toggle (on or off) of the tag, or to the next toggle of any tag if tag is NULL.

Moves iter forward to the next visible cursor position.

Moves up to count visible cursor positions.

Moves iter to the start of the next visible line.

Moves count visible lines forward, if possible.

Moves forward to the next visible word end.

Calls gtk_text_iter_forward_visible_word_end() up to count times.

Moves forward to the next word end.

Calls gtk_text_iter_forward_word_end() up to count times.

Free an iterator allocated on the heap.

Returns the GtkTextBuffer this iterator is associated with.

Returns the number of bytes in the line containing iter, including the paragraph delimiters.

The Unicode character at this iterator is returned.

Returns the number of characters in the line containing iter, including the paragraph delimiters.

If the location at iter contains a child anchor, the anchor is returned.

Returns the language in effect at iter.

Returns the line number containing the iterator.

Returns the byte index of the iterator, counting from the start of a newline-terminated line.

Returns the character offset of the iterator, counting from the start of a newline-terminated line.

Returns a list of all GtkTextMark at this location.

Returns the character offset of an iterator.

If the element at iter is a paintable, the paintable is returned.

Returns the text in the given range.

Returns a list of tags that apply to iter, in ascending order of priority.

Returns text in the given range.

Returns a list of GtkTextTag that are toggled on or off at this point.

Returns the number of bytes from the start of the line to the given iter, not counting bytes that are invisible due to tags with the “invisible” flag toggled on.

Returns the offset in characters from the start of the line to the given iter, not counting characters that are invisible due to tags with the “invisible” flag toggled on.

Returns visible text in the given range.

Returns visible text in the given range.

Returns TRUE if iter points to a character that is part of a range tagged with tag.

Checks whether iter falls in the range [start, end).

Determines whether iter is inside a sentence (as opposed to in between two sentences, e.g. after a period and before the first letter of the next sentence).

Determines whether the character pointed by iter is part of a natural-language word (as opposed to say inside some whitespace).

Determine if iter is at a cursor position.

Returns TRUE if iter is the end iterator.

Returns TRUE if iter is the first iterator in the buffer.

Swaps the value of first and second if second comes before first in the buffer.

Moves iterator iter to the start of the line line_number.

Same as gtk_text_iter_set_line_offset(), but works with a byte index. The given byte index must be at the start of a character, it can’t be in the middle of a UTF-8 encoded character.

Moves iter within a line, to a new character (not byte) offset.

Sets iter to point to char_offset.

Like gtk_text_iter_set_line_index(), but the index is in visible bytes, i.e. text with a tag making it invisible is not counted in the index.

Like gtk_text_iter_set_line_offset(), but the offset is in visible characters, i.e. text with a tag making it invisible is not counted in the offset.

Returns TRUE if iter begins a paragraph.

Determines whether iter begins a sentence.

Returns TRUE if tag is toggled on at exactly this point.

Determines whether iter begins a natural-language word.

Gets whether a range with tag applied to it begins or ends at iter.
