gtk_editable_set_position ()
void gtk_editable_set_position (GtkEditable *editable,
gint position);
Sets the cursor position.
editable : a GtkEditable widget.
position : the position of the cursor. The cursor is displayed
before the character with the given (base 0) index in the
widget. The value must be less than or equal to the number of
characters in the widget. A value of -1 indicates that the position
should be set after the last character in the entry. Note that
this position is in characters, not in bytes.

are those characters at positions from start_pos up to, but not
