select_range
Description:
This function moves the “insert” and “selection_bound” marks simultaneously.
If you move them in two steps with move_mark, you will temporarily select a region in between their old and new locations, which can be pretty inefficient since the temporarily-selected region will force stuff to be recalculated. This function moves them as a unit, which can be optimized.
Parameters:
this | |
ins |
where to put the “insert” mark |
bound |
where to put the “selection_bound” mark |
