void main() {
  var text = Text(string);
  var position = text.length ~/ 2;
  // Get the line by the character position
  var line = text.lineAt(position)!;

  // Get the location by the character position
  var location = text.locationAt(position);
  print('pos: $position => loc: ${location.line}:${location.column}');

  // Get the character position by the location

  // Get the line by index (line.number - 1)
