In (info "(elisp) Parser State"): Here are the meanings of the elements of the parser state: [...] 5. =E2=80=98t=E2=80=99 if the end point is just after a quote character. [...] 7. What kind of comment is active: =E2=80=98nil=E2=80=99 if not in a comm= ent or in a comment of style =E2=80=98a=E2=80=99; My question is: 1. What does the "quote character" mean? Does it mean "'" in Lisp? If so, what about "," and "#"? 2. What is comment style =E2=80=98a=E2=80=99? In (info "(elisp) Syntax Fla= gs"): "A comment style is a set of flags =E2=80=98b=E2=80=99, =E2=80=98c=E2=80=99= , and =E2=80=98n=E2=80=99, so there can be up to 8 different comment styles." I can't find an =E2=80=98a=E2=80=99 sty= le. I've also searched the archives/web, but didn't get anything that looked promising. Can anyone point me in the right direction? --=20 Best regards, Xue Fuqiao. http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/
