The argument @var{character-set} is a string, like the inside of a
@samp{[@dots{}]} in a regular expression except that @samp{]} does not
terminate it, and @samp{\} quotes @samp{^}, @samp{-} or @samp{\}.
Thus, @code{"a-zA-Z"} skips over all letters, stopping before the
first nonletter, and @code{"^a-zA-Z"} skips nonletters stopping before
the first letter.  @xref{Regular Expressions}.

If @var{limit} is supplied (it must be a number or a marker), it
specifies the maximum position in the buffer that point can be skipped
to.  Point will stop at or before @var{limit}.

can also be used, e.g. @code{"[:alnum:]"}.  See @pxref{Char Classes}.
