Get_iter_at_cursor?

Desktop Ruby-Gnome 2

Hi there, again me :wink: another problem

I would need a method such as:
get_iter_at_cursor
which gives back the iter at the current cursor.

I have looked but found no easy way to find out where the
cursor is located (+the iter it has)

My problem right now:

start_pos = buffer.get_iter_at_line(3)
end_pos = buffer.get_iter_at_line(20)
buffer.delete( start_pos, end_pos )

This snippet will/should delete lines 3-20.
However the first one for start_pos should be something like
this instead:

start_pos = buffer.get_iter_at_cursor

So that I could delete all rows up to a specified number
beginning with the cursor.

Does anyone know of a workaround at least?

The way you do this with TextBuffer is by grabbing the mark named
“insert” and using that. See the attached script that prints the
character under the cursor every second.
