# Method GTK2.TextIter()->forward_chars()

Method forward_chars

  `int forward_chars(int count)`

Description

  Moves count characters if possible (if count would move past the start or end of the buffer, moves to the start or end of the buffer). The return value indicates whether the new position is different from its original position, and dereferenceable (the last iterator in the buffer is not). If count is 0, the function does nothing and returns false.
