Method GTK2.TextBuffer()->get_text()

Method get_text

string get_text(GTK2.TextIter start, GTK2.TextIter end, int include_hidden_chars)

Description

Returns the text int the range [start,end). Excludes undisplayed text (text marked with tags that set the invisibility attribute) if include_hidden_chars is false. Does not include characters representing embedded images, so byte and character indexes into the returned string do not correspond to byte and character indexes into the buffer. Contrast with get_slice().
