Method

GtkTextIterforward_char

Declaration [src]

gboolean
gtk_text_iter_forward_char (
  GtkTextIter* iter
)

Description [src]

Moves iter forward by one character offset. Note that images embedded in the buffer occupy 1 character slot, so gtk_text_iter_forward_char() may actually move onto an image instead of a character, if you have images in your buffer. If iter is the end iterator or one character before it, iter will now point at the end iterator, and gtk_text_iter_forward_char() returns FALSE for convenience when writing loops.

Return value

Type: gboolean

Whether iter moved and is dereferenceable.
