  Changes the case of the text between the specified iterators.
• public unowned SourceMark create_source_mark (string? name, string category, TextIter where)
  Creates a source mark in the this of category category.
• public void end_not_undoable_action ()
  Marks the end of a not undoable action on the buffer.
• public void ensure_highlight (TextIter start, TextIter end)
  Forces buffer to analyze and highlight the given area synchronously.
• public bool forward_iter_to_source_mark (ref TextIter iter, string? category)
  Moves iter to the position of the next SourceMark of the given category.
• public string[] get_context_classes_at_iter (TextIter iter)

• public bool iter_backward_to_context_class_toggle (ref TextIter iter, string context_class)
  Moves backward to the next toggle (on or off) of the context class.
• public bool iter_forward_to_context_class_toggle (ref TextIter iter, string context_class)
  Moves forward to the next toggle (on or off) of the context class.
• public bool iter_has_context_class (TextIter iter, string context_class)
  Check if the class context_class is set on iter.
• public void join_lines (TextIter start, TextIter end)
  Joins the lines of text between the specified iterators.
• public void remove_source_marks (TextIter start, TextIter end, string? category)

• public void set_highlight_matching_brackets (bool highlight)
  Controls the bracket match highlighting function in the buffer.
• public void set_highlight_syntax (bool highlight)
  Controls whether syntax is highlighted in the buffer.
• public void set_implicit_trailing_newline (bool implicit_trailing_newline)
  Sets whether the this has an implicit trailing newline.
• public void set_language (SourceLanguage? language)
  Associates a SourceLanguage with the buffer.
• public void set_max_undo_levels (int max_undo_levels)
  Sets the number of undo levels for user actions the buffer will track.
• public void set_style_scheme (SourceStyleScheme? scheme)
  Sets a SourceStyleScheme to be used by the buffer and the view.
• public void set_undo_manager (SourceUndoManager? manager)
  Set the buffer undo manager.
• public void sort_lines (TextIter start, TextIter end, SourceSortFlags flags, int column)

Signals:

• public virtual signal void bracket_matched (TextIter? iter, SourceBracketMatchType state)
  iter is set to a valid iterator pointing to the matching bracket if state is gtk_source_bracket_match_found.
• public signal void highlight_updated (TextIter start, TextIter end)
  The highlight_updated signal is emitted when the syntax highlighting and context classes are updated in a certain region of the buffer.
• public virtual signal void redo ()
  The redo signal is emitted to redo the last undo operation.
• public signal void source_mark_updated (TextMark mark)
  The source_mark_updated signal is emitted each time a mark is added to, moved or removed from the buffer.
• public virtual signal void undo ()
  The undo signal is emitted to undo the last user action which modified the buffer.
