Subject: forward-paragraph return value
Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2010 20:25:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C72BD0A.8090104@online.de> (raw)


Hi,

`forward-paragraph' presently returns "0" if the number of steps given 
by ARG is completed. It's code ends with:

     ;; Return the number of steps that could not be done.
     arg))

IMHO buffer-position reached is a more useful return value.

Function may return point only when successfully, nil otherwise.

Thanks all


Andreas
