Inherited functions

From class ScrollingMovementMethod

`Boolean`	`bottom(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`end(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`home(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`lineEnd(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`lineStart(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`pageDown(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`pageUp(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`top(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!)`

From class BaseMovementMethod

`Boolean`	`canSelectArbitrarily()`
`Int`	`getMovementMetaState(buffer: Spannable!, event: KeyEvent!)` Gets the meta state used for movement using the modifiers tracked by the text buffer as well as those present in the key event. The movement meta state excludes the state of locked modifiers or the SHIFT key since they are not used by movement actions (but they may be used for selection).
`Boolean`	`handleMovementKey(widget: TextView!, buffer: Spannable!, keyCode: Int, movementMetaState: Int, event: KeyEvent!)` Performs a movement key action. The default implementation decodes the key down and invokes movement actions such as `down` and `up`. `onKeyDown(android.widget.TextView,android.text.Spannable,int,android.view.KeyEvent)` calls this method once to handle an `KeyEvent#ACTION_DOWN`. `onKeyOther(android.widget.TextView,android.text.Spannable,android.view.KeyEvent)` calls this method repeatedly to handle each repetition of an `KeyEvent#ACTION_MULTIPLE`.
`Unit`	`initialize(widget: TextView!, text: Spannable!)`
`Boolean`	`nextParagraph(widget: TextView, buffer: Spannable)` Performs a next paragraph movement action.
`Boolean`	`onGenericMotionEvent(widget: TextView!, text: Spannable!, event: MotionEvent!)`
`Boolean`	`onKeyDown(widget: TextView!, text: Spannable!, keyCode: Int, event: KeyEvent!)`
`Boolean`	`onKeyOther(widget: TextView!, text: Spannable!, event: KeyEvent!)`
`Boolean`	`onKeyUp(widget: TextView!, text: Spannable!, keyCode: Int, event: KeyEvent!)`
`Boolean`	`onTrackballEvent(widget: TextView!, text: Spannable!, event: MotionEvent!)`
`Boolean`	`previousParagraph(widget: TextView, buffer: Spannable)` Performs a previous paragraph movement action.
