When you insert text directly at the place where a marker points,
there are two possible ways to relocate that marker: it can point before
the inserted text, or point after it. You can specify which one a given
marker should do by setting its insertion type. Note that use of
insert-before-markers ignores markers' insertion types, always
relocating a marker to point after the inserted text.
Function:set-marker-insertion-typemarker type
This function sets the insertion type of marker marker to
type. If type is t, marker will advance when
text is inserted at its position. If type is nil,
marker does not advance when text is inserted there.
Function:marker-insertion-typemarker
This function reports the current insertion type of marker.
