gtkTextIterGetSlice: gtkTextIterGetSlice

In RGtk2: R Bindings for Gtk 2.8.0 and Above

Description

Returns the text in the given range. A "slice" is a list of characters encoded in UTF-8 format, including the Unicode "unknown" character 0xFFFC for iterable non-character elements in the buffer, such as images. Because images are encoded in the slice, byte and character offsets in the returned list will correspond to byte offsets in the text buffer. Note that 0xFFFC can occur in normal text as well, so it is not a reliable indicator that a pixbuf or widget is in the buffer.

Usage

gtkTextIterGetSlice(object, end)

Arguments

object	iterator at start of a range
end	iterator at end of a range

Value

[character] slice of text from the buffer
