Subject: bug#3027: Possible bug with form-at-point in thingatpt.el
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2009 09:45:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ee5546040904170945j38b412b3t83598a015e41bc5c@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I was trying to use the function (list-at-point) on some text, for example

'(1 2 3 a b c)

No matter where I put point in this text, the function list-at-point
returns nil. Is this a bug, or are my expectations wrong?

I was using this code to test the function:

(defun test-lap()
  (interactive)
  (insert (format ">%s<" (list-at-point))))


Version Windows GNU Emacs 22.3.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2008-09-06
on SOFT-MJASON
Windows XP


Thanks,

Justin Heyes0Jones
