Hi everybody, I'm right now doing some cleaning at the documentation of atk (as a result of doing some long-waited deprecations). As you can recall from the atk-hackfest of 2012 [1], one of the conclusions was adding some new signals [2] in order to deprecate AtkText::text-changed [3]. And the signals text-insert, text-remove and text-update was added with that bug [2].
But, the patch didn't add any documentation at all for those methods. And although I was able to infer the meaning (and more important, the parameters) of 'text-insert' and 'text-remove" from Fernando announcement [4] and the code itself (at-spi2-atk+firefox), I was not able to do the same for 'text-update'. Additionaly, and as I said some years ago [5], I'm not sure about needing that method. And, in fact, right now, that signal is not used at all on at-spi2-atk, and is not emitted by firefox (that was the first application implementing the other two methods). So, I'm tempted to just mark that signal as deprecated (without replacement), unless someone remember the meaning of that signal, or why it was created.
