    Is it a word, a sentence, or a paragraph?

    I noticed that the document says QTextCursor::block() returns "the block that contains the cursor", but I'm not sure what does "block" mean here.

      Well, it obviously refers to a QTextBlock, the type returned by that method. And a QTextBlock
      [quote]encapsulates a block or paragraph of text in a QTextDocument.[/quote]
      according to the documentation.
