      void onMoveCursor(int step, int count, boolean extend_selection)
      Gets emitted when the user initiates a cursor movement.

      The ::move-cursor signal is a [keybinding signal](class.SignalAction.html).
      If the cursor is not visible in @entry, this signal causes the viewport to
      be moved instead.

      Applications should not connect to it, but may emit it with
      g_signal_emit_by_name() if they need to control the cursor
      programmatically.

      The default bindings for this signal come in two variants,
      the variant with the Shift modifier extends the selection,
      the variant without the Shift modifier does not.
      There are too many key combinations to list them all here.
      - Arrow keys move by individual characters/lines
      - Ctrl-arrow key combinations move by words/paragraphs
      - Home/End keys move to the ends of the buffer
      Parameters:
      step - the granularity of the move, as a `GtkMovementStep`
      count - the number of @step units to move
      extend_selection - %TRUE if the move should extend the selection
