The "thing" is defined by ;; its beginning and end positions in the buffer. ;; ;; The function bounds-of-thing-at-point finds the beginning and end ;; positions by moving first forward to the end of the "thing", and then ;; backwards to the beginning. By default, it uses the corresponding ;; forward-"thing" operator (e.g. forward-word, forward-line). ;; ;; Special cases are allowed for using properties associated with the named ;; "thing": ;; ;; forward-op Function to call to skip forward over a "thing" (or ;; with a negative argument, backward). ;; ;; beginning-op Function to call to skip to the beginning of a "thing". ;; end-op Function to call to skip to the end of a "thing". ;; ;; For simple things, defined as sequences of specific kinds of characters, ;; use macro define-thing-chars. ;; ;; Reliance on existing operators means that many `things' can be accessed ;; without further code: eg. ;; (thing-at-point 'line) ;; (thing-at-point 'page) ;;; Code: (provide 'thingatpt) (defvar thing-at-point-provider-alist nil "Alist of providers for returning a \"thing\" at point.
