Method get_selection_bound

  `GTK2.TextMark get_selection_bound()`

Description

  Returns the mark that represents the selection bound. Equivalent to calling get_mark() to get the mark named "selection_bound", but very slightly more efficient, and involves less typing.

  The currently-selected text in the buffer is the region between the "selection_bound" and "insert" marks. If "selection_bound" and "insert" are in the same place, then there is no current selection. get_selection_bounds() is another convenient function for handling the selection, if you just want to know whether there's a selection and what its bounds are.
