the end of the text buffer. The search proceeds toward the beginning of the text buffer. Specifies the pointer in which the first charac-
ter position of the string match is returned. This is an integer number of characters from the beginning of the buffer. The first charac-
ter position is 0. If the function returns False, this value is undefined.
