This function moves the “insert” and “selection_bound” marks simultaneously.

Redoes the next redoable action on the buffer, if there is one.

Removes all tags in the range between @start and @end.

Used to keep track of whether the buffer has been modified since the last time it was saved.

Deletes current contents of @buffer, and inserts @text instead. This is automatically marked as an irreversible action in the undo stack. If you wish to mark this action as part of a larger undo operation, call method@TextBuffer.delete and method@TextBuffer.insert directly instead.
