Subject: Manual error in (elisp) Searching Keymaps regarding keymap char properties?
Date: Sun, 18 Sep 2022 17:07:13 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87r108wuur.fsf@airmail.cc> (raw)
Hello,
The psuedo-Lisp code presented in the manual (elisp) Searching
Keymaps says:
(if (get-text-property (point) 'local-map)
(FIND-IN (get-char-property (point) 'local-map))
(FIND-IN (current-local-map)))
Why does the condition use `get-text-property', but then the
consequent uses `get-char-property'? Shouldn't they both be
`get-char-property'? According to (elisp) Active Keymaps:
"If there is a ‘local-map’ text or overlay property at point, that
specifies the local keymap to use, in place of the buffer’s
default local keymap."
Am I missing something?
Additionally, perhaps the two paragraphs in (elisp) Active Keymaps
that mention the `keymap` and the `local-map' property should be
reworded slightly to emphasize that the search prefers the overlay
property over the text property, since that's how
`get-char-property' is documented to work.
