Subject: bug#59345: 28.2; peg.el: syntax-class PEX does not advance point
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2022 18:49:20 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <16D8C25F-31A8-44D8-9DDC-3CFF149183C2@toadstyle.org> (raw)
Hi folks,
In version 1.0 of peg.el, there is a PEX to match the syntax class of
the character at point. I expected it to advance the point after
recognizing the correct class, but it seems that it does not. I expected
its behavior to be similar to character classes, sets and ranges, and
all of these seem to advance the point. Instead, it seems it is more
like a guard expression.
To demonstrate this, you can evaluate the following forms:
(require 'peg)
(with-temp-buffer
(save-excursion
(insert " "))
(list
(save-excursion
(cons
(peg-run (peg (syntax-class whitespace)))
(point)))
(save-excursion
(cons
(peg-run (peg " "))
(point)))))
While both PEGs match the character at point, only the latter advances
the point.
This might just be a matter of documenting the behavior of the
syntax-class PEX, but I think it would make more sense if it behaved
like character classes, sets, ranges and literals.
Thanks!
