TextMark.this

Creates a text mark.

Add it to a buffer using [method@Gtk.TextBuffer.add_mark]. If @name is %NULL, the mark is anonymous; otherwise, the mark can be retrieved by name using [method@Gtk.TextBuffer.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).
