+##Custom touches handling.
+
+This project also includes few helper methods that will allow you to detect and handle touches in arbitrary text ranges. This way you can for exapmle implement custom links handling in your `UITextView` subclass. `ReadMoreTextView` uses these methods itself to detect touches in "read more"/"read less" action areas.

+
+extension UITextView {
+
+	/**
+	 Calls provided `test` block if point is in gliph range and there is no link detected at this point.
+	 Will pass in to `test` a character index that corresponds to `point`.
