23 ;; This file provides routines for getting the `thing' at the location of | |
24 ;; point, whatever that `thing' happens to be. The `thing' is defined by | |
25 ;; it's beginning and end positions in the buffer. | |
26 ;; | |
27 ;; The function bounds-of-thing-at-point finds the beginning and end | |
28 ;; positions by moving first forward to the end of the `thing', and then | |
29 ;; backwards to the beginning. By default, it uses the corresponding | |
30 ;; forward-`thing' operator (eg. forward-word, forward-line). | |
31 ;; | |
32 ;; Special cases are allowed for using properties associated with the named | |
33 ;; `thing': | |
34 ;; | |
35 ;; forward-op Function to call to skip forward over a `thing' (or | |
36 ;; with a negative argument, backward). | |
37 ;; | |
38 ;; beginning-op Function to call to skip to the beginning of a `thing'. | |
39 ;; end-op Function to call to skip to the end of a `thing'. | |
40 ;; | |
41 ;; Reliance on existing operators means that many `things' can be accessed | |
42 ;; without further code: eg. | |
43 ;; (thing-at-point 'line) | |
44 ;; (thing-at-point 'page) | |
