Good day -
How to get emacs LISP program editing modes to ignore
UTF-8 parentheses characters like '《' (\U300A) or :
10088 2768 (3 2) ❨ 'MEDIUM LEFT PARENTHESIS ORNAMENT'
10089 2769 (3 2) ❩ 'MEDIUM RIGHT PARENTHESIS ORNAMENT'
10090 276A (3 2) ❪ 'MEDIUM FLATTENED LEFT PARENTHESIS ORNAMENT'
10091 276B (3 2) ❫ 'MEDIUM FLATTENED RIGHT PARENTHESIS ORNAMENT'
10222 27EE (5 1) ⟮ 'MATHEMATICAL LEFT FLATTENED PARENTHESIS'
10223 27EF (5 1) ⟯ 'MATHEMATICAL RIGHT FLATTENED PARENTHESIS'
10629 2985 (3 2) ⦅ 'LEFT WHITE PARENTHESIS'
10630 2986 (3 2) ⦆ 'RIGHT WHITE PARENTHESIS'
11816 2E28 (5 1) ⸨ 'LEFT DOUBLE PARENTHESIS'
11817 2E29 (5 1) ⸩ 'RIGHT DOUBLE PARENTHESIS'
64830 FD3E (1 1) ﴾ 'ORNATE LEFT PARENTHESIS'
64831 FD3F (1 1) ﴿ 'ORNATE RIGHT PARENTHESIS'
12298 300A (1 1) 《 'LEFT DOUBLE ANGLE BRACKET'
12299 300B (1 1) 》 'RIGHT DOUBLE ANGLE BRACKET'
65113 FE59 (1 1) ﹙ 'SMALL LEFT PARENTHESIS'
65114 FE5A (1 1) ﹚ 'SMALL RIGHT PARENTHESIS'
65288 FF08 (1 1) （ 'FULLWIDTH LEFT PARENTHESIS'
65289 FF09 (1 1) ） 'FULLWIDTH RIGHT PARENTHESIS'
65375 FF5F (3 2) ｟ 'FULLWIDTH LEFT WHITE PARENTHESIS'
65376 FF60 (3 2) ｠ 'FULLWIDTH RIGHT WHITE PARENTHESIS'
Please could some emacs guru let me know how the 'lisp-mode' based source
editing modes can be made to ignore / treat as normal characters such not-ascii-'(' and
not-ascii-')' characters and to NOT attempt to balance them or to
consider them parenthesis syntax ? No LISP parser I am using
considers them to be syntax.
It is really annoying to have to turn all parenthesis balancing off
when my lisp source code files might contain such valid unicode characters.
I am running Emacs 28.2 I built as RPM with modified Fedora emacs
spec file under Fedora Linux v36 x86_64 .
Thanks & Best Regards,
Jason

You could try
(modify-syntax-entry ?< ".")
where you replace < with each individual character you do not wish to be
treated as a paren.

That worked, thank you!
(mapcar (lambda (c)
(eval (list 'modify-syntax-entry c "."))
)
'( ?\❨ ?\❩ ?\❪ ?\❫ ?\⟮ ?\⟯ ?\⦅ ?\⦆ ?\⸨ ?\⸩ ?\﴾ ?\﴿ ?\《 ?\》 ?\﹙ ?\﹚
?\（ ?\） ?\｟ ?\｠)
)
Strange, I am not able to get that to work without the 'eval' .

Please elaborate on the meaning of "attempt to balance them or to
consider them parenthesis syntax". Which aspects of what Emacs does
by default annoy you and you would like to turn them off?
The answer to your question might depend on what exactly would you
like to "turn off".

Your problem (although I'm assuming this wouldn't be a problem for most users)
is that all the above characters are defined to be opening/closing delimiters in the
syntax table for elisp-mode. (You can view the syntax table for the current
major mode with "C-h s").
In order to disable their treatment as opening or closing delimiters, use the
modify-syntax-entry funtion as described above on this thread. For instance:
(modify-syntax-entry ?❨ "w")
to put MEDIUM-LEFT-PARENTHESIS-ORNAMENT in the word class instead of the
opening-delimeter class. Doing this for all the characters you specified will
give you your desired behavior. See this section of the Emacs wiki:
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/EmacsSyntaxTable#h5o-4
for information on how to put these types configurations in your init file so
that they will be in effect every time you enter elisp-mode.
Best,
Eric Frederickson
