Hm... I'm not sure that makes sense -- this is down-list: (let ((inc (if (> arg 0) 1 -1))) (while (/=3D arg 0) (goto-char (or (scan-lists (point) inc -1) (buffer-end arg))) (setq arg (- arg inc))))) It very much looks like a command just meant for interactive use, and if you want to do something programmatically in this area, you should probably just use scan-lists directly. --=20 (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
