Currently, the replaceRange() and insert() methods in TextArea.java
do not check the values of their input parameters to see if they are
valid or not (e.g., if text == null, if start < 0, if end < 0, if
end < start). These checks should be made to avoid errors or
undefined behavior.

Note: Check the current (undocumented and possibly platform-dependent)
behavior for Solaris and Windows, and see what Exceptions are thrown,
decide if they should be documented, consider whether API or spec
changes are necessary, etc.

In replaceRange method of the class TextArea , if arguments start & end are same then this method goes and replaces start + 1 th character instead of the start character.
