Hope someone can help me !

I want to start using the Inkscape Extension – Render – Simple Inkscape Scripting.

It is quite straightforward to use, You type in your code and “Apply” it, like this

It uses the extension that Simple Inkscape Scripting that can be downloaded from https://github.com/spakin/SimpInkScr

Plus there is helpful documentation

It uses Python, and there is online assistance on this, for example https://www.w3schools.com/python/default.asp

The function used in the above code is “text”, which is described in the Simple Inkscape Scripting documentation as follows:

From several examples, you can see that there are also several parameters/arguments/keywords used with “text()”

Eg.      font_size

           Text_anchor

           Font_weight

           Fill

          Text_align

           Font_family

My question is,

1. although the function text() is described above as “text(msg, (x, y), obj)” ,  there is no reference anywhere to the parameters that can be used and their definitions ?
2. Is the “text()” function and associated parameters defined in Inkscape, the Simple Inkscape Scripting extension or in Python ?
3. Where can a person find references to these parameters etc.
