# Method GTK2.TextBuffer()->delete()

Method delete

  ``GTK2.TextBuffer` delete(`GTK2.TextIter` `start`, `GTK2.TextIter` `end`)`

Description

  Deletes text between start and end. The order of start and end is not actually relevant; delete() will reorder them. This function actually emits the "delete-range" signal, and the default handler of that signal deletes the text. Because the buffer is modified, all outstanding iterators become invalid after calling this function; however, start and end will be re-initialized to point to the location where text was deleted.
