 * \short An object representing a section of text, from one Cursor to another.
 *
 * A Range is a basic class which represents a range of text with two Cursors,
 * from a start() position to an end() position.
 *
 * For simplicity and convenience, ranges always maintain their start position to
 * be before or equal to their end position.  Attempting to set either the
 * start or end of the range beyond the respective end or start will result in
 * both values being set to the specified position.  In the constructor, the
 * start and end will be swapped if necessary.
 *
 * If you want additional functionality such as the ability to maintain position
 * in a document, see SmartRange.
