Description brainfucker 2009-04-21 19:37:20 UTC 
in gtk/gtktextiter.c there are special function that responds for word slicing.
for example if you type "word" somewhere in gnome, and press CTRL+LEFT, pointer will moved in the starts of this word, but if you type "word_another" and press CTRL+LEFT, pointer will moved after "_" symbol, its doesn't meter for normal typing, but very important for programming, for example you type "some_func" and need to move in the beginning of function name, also because of this feature is used in gedit snippets
