EntryBuffer.deleteText

Deletes a sequence of characters from the buffer. n_chars characters are deleted starting at position. If n_chars is negative, then all characters until the end of the text are deleted. If position or n_chars are out of bounds, then they are coerced to sane values. Note that the positions are specified in characters, not bytes. Since 2.18
