Deletes text between start
and end
.
The order of start
and end
is not actually relevant; @delete will reorder them.
This function actually emits the “delete-range” signal, and the default handler of that signal deletes the text. Because the buffer is
modified, all outstanding iterators become invalid after calling this function; however, the start
and end
will
be re-initialized to point to the location where text was deleted.
