Subject: bug#11531: 24.1.50; electric-pair-mode needs to detect apostrophes in strings or comments
Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2012 17:28:17 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CABMJL3+qbVK0+W1i6S4L0mV5iPaOfVhjuQLC89V-gyPRuuYMtg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <877gw6qhjo.fsf@sfllaw.ca>
I now use the following workaround, in order to always pair when the
region is active:
(defadvice electric-pair-post-self-insert-function (around
electric-pair-apostrophe
activate)
"Fix electric-pair to handle apostrophes inside strings or comments"
(if (use-region-p)
;; Always pair if the region is active
ad-do-it
(let* ((quick-syntax-info (syntax-ppss))
(inside-string (fourth quick-syntax-info))
(inside-comment (fifth quick-syntax-info)))
(if (not (eq last-command-event ?\'))
;; Only deal with single-quote characters
ad-do-it
(let* ((char-before-insert (char-before (1- (point))))
(char-before-syntax (and char-before-insert
(char-syntax char-before-insert))))
;; We want the character before the self-insert-command
(if (and (or inside-string inside-comment)
(eq char-before-syntax ?w))
;; Single-quotes inside a string or comment, and immediately
;; following a word, are actually apostrophes and should not
;; be paired.
t
ad-do-it))))))
