* intervals.c (find_interval): Doc fixes, computation of tree->position rearranged for clarity. * intervals.c (find_interval): Consistently treat POSITION as an actual buffer position, i.e. origin 1. The old code seemed undecided on this point. Treat the end of the buffer as being part of the rightmost interval. (adjust_intervals_for_insertion): Consistently treat POSITION as origin 1. (interval_deletion_adjustment): The exception: FROM should be origin zero here. Consistently treat it as such. Simplify code which shrinks and possibly deletes intervals. (adjust_intervals_for_deletion): Treat start as origin 1; our caller does. (set_point): Use buffer positions throughout, not a mix of buffer posns and origin zero posns. (get_local_map): Remove special case for POSITION at end of buffer; find_interval handles that case correctly. (verify_interval_modification): Remove special case for START at end of buffer. * textprop.c (validate_interval_range): End-of-buffer/string positions no longer need special handling. * intervals.c (make_new_interval): #if 0 this out. Nobody calls it.

;;; Commentary:

;; Commands to optimize spaces to tabs or expand tabs to spaces in a region
;; (`tabify' and `untabify').  The variable tab-width does the obvious.

;;; Code:

;;;###autoload
(defun untabify (start end)
  "Convert all tabs in region to multiple spaces, preserving columns.
Called non-interactively, the region is specified by arguments
START and END, rather than by the position of point and mark.
The variable `tab-width' controls the spacing of tab stops."
  (interactive "r")
  (save-excursion
    (save-restriction
      (narrow-to-region (point-min) end)
      (goto-char start)
      (while (search-forward "\t" nil t)	; faster than re-search
	(let ((start (point))
	      (column (current-column))
	      (indent-tabs-mode nil))
	  (skip-chars-backward "\t")
	  (delete-region start (point))
	  (indent-to column))))))

;;;###autoload
(defun tabify (start end)
  "Convert multiple spaces in region to tabs when possible.
A group of spaces is partially replaced by tabs
when this can be done without changing the column they end at.
Called non-interactively, the region is specified by arguments
START and END, rather than by the position of point and mark.
The variable `tab-width' controls the spacing of tab stops."
  (interactive "r")
  (save-excursion
    (save-restriction
      (narrow-to-region start end)
      (goto-char start)
      (while (re-search-forward "[ \t][ \t][ \t]*" nil t)
	(let ((column (current-column))
	      (indent-tabs-mode t))
	  (delete-region (match-beginning 0) (point))
	  (indent-to column))))))
