Subject: Posix char classes and skip-chars-(forward|backward)
Date: Mon, 24 May 2004 01:12:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5br7tahh6f.fsf@lister.roxen.com> (raw)
Emacs 21 introduced posix char classes in regexps with a syntax like
"[[:upper:][:digit:]_]". Given that skip-chars-(forward|backward)
should take a char class like the inside of a "[...]", I expect that
one can do e.g.
(skip-chars-forward "[:upper:][:digit:]_")
Unfortunately that doesn't work. This is a problem in CC Mode which
uses the same building blocks for both regexps and these "bare" char
classes.
