Subject: Problems extracting a text property
Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2007 10:22:06 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wswrfs29.fsf@baldur.tsdh.de> (raw)
Hi,
on a link in an info buffer the text has properies like these:
,----
| (font-lock-face info-xref mouse-face highlight
| help-echo mouse-2: go to (libc)Special Functions)
| (font-lock-face info-xref mouse-face highlight
| help-echo mouse-2: go to (libext2fs.info))
| (font-lock-face info-xref mouse-face highlight
| help-echo mouse-2: go to (libidn)Invoking idn)
| (font-lock-face info-xref mouse-face highlight
| help-echo mouse-2: go to (nano))
| (font-lock-face info-xref mouse-face highlight
| help-echo mouse-2: go to (recode))
`----
Now I'd like to extract the link locations, e.g. "(libc)Special
Functions". But how?
The other properties can be examined with
(get-text-property (point) 'font-lock-face)
but I cannot get the target.
I tried
(get-text-property (point) 'mouse-2)
(get-text-property (point) 'mouse-2:)
(get-text-property (point) "mouse-2: go to")
(get-text-property (point) 'to)
but they all return nil.
Much thanks in advance,
Tassilo
