Creates a mark at position @where. If @mark_name is %NULL, the mark
is anonymous; otherwise, the mark can be retrieved by name using
gtk_text_buffer_get_mark(). If a mark has left gravity, and text is
inserted at the mark’s current location, the mark will be moved to
the left of the newly-inserted text. If the mark has right gravity
(@left_gravity = %FALSE), the mark will end up on the right of
newly-inserted text. The standard left-to-right cursor is a mark
with right gravity (when you type, the cursor stays on the right
side of the text you’re typing).
The caller of this function does not own a
reference to the returned #GtkTextMark, so you can ignore the
return value if you like. Marks are owned by the buffer and go
away when the buffer does.
Emits the #GtkTextBuffer::mark-set signal as notification of the mark's
initial placement.
