Hi Eric, I meant to respond sooner but I've been busy. This worked like a charm!! Thank you very much. Not sure how I overloaded `gtk_text_iter_backward_chars` but yeah that made things way easier.
A followup I've been struggling with though is how to avoid applying this formatting when rich text is being pasted (I process it and tag it before calling my parent's `insert_text` method). I'm using a horrible heuristic right now of only applying formatting if the `text_len` passed into my `insert_text` is equal to `1`. The heuristic here is that the user can only enter 1 character at a time and you wouldn't have rich text on the clipboard of only a single character. This has the side affect that plain text won't be formatted via the UI buttons. I've been looking for a way to hook into the clipboard stuff, but that doesn't seem like it'll fix the original problem of just knowing to not apply the set formatting when rich text is pasted. Any suggestions?
