diff src/editfns.c @ 26389:e2acf63b5403

(Fline_beginning_position): If N is not 1, pass t to Fconstrain_to_field for ESCAPE-FROM-EDGE. (preceding_pos): Function deleted. (text_property_stickiness): Decrement POS directly. Fix a confusion that used PT instead of POS. (find_field): Properly handle the case of a field boundary where `field' inherits from neither side. (Ffield_beginning, Ffield_end): Doc fixes. (Ferase_field, Ffield_string, Ffield_string_no_properties): Doc fixes.
