The marked text are a range in an NSTextView document that represents text "owned" by input methods. It's also called an inline hole.

Some languages (mostly East Asian) require complex keystrokes to get a character so the text input system provides the way to "mark" a range of text in this intermediate (or unconfirmed) state.

From application's point of view, it is often seen as a special selection. However, there are cases the actual range returned from -selectedRange method is contained in the range returned from -markedRange method.
