Describe the bug
When there are more than 65,536 (2^16) characters in a file after tp.file.cursor() finishes it's replacement, the cursor is put to the start of the line rather than to the correct position.
If there are less than 2^16 characters after replacement, everything works fine.
Expected behavior
The cursor should jump to the correct position on the line.
Screenshots
Pay attention to the character count in the bottom right

Additional context
It is possible that this is an issue with the EditorPosition interface, which I believe implements position (or ch) as a TypeScript number

Edit: Here is the test file with the thousands of characters for your own testing

I'm seeing this as well. I have a daily log file that I just append to the beginning of and now when I apply the template for the daily log my cursor is positioned before rather than after the list marker.
## <% tp.date.now("YYYY/MM/DD dddd") %>
-<% tp.file.cursor(1) %>
i am also having this issue. Wonder if anyone has a fix for this?
