Subject: +1 char strings as open-bracket/close-bracket
Date: Thu, 25 Jun 2009 04:13:19 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c3ca0846-dda7-4ba8-a559-45ae0c330131@n4g2000vba.googlegroups.com> (raw)

Any way of modifying the syntax table to identify a string of more
than one character as an open-bracket or a close-bracket character.
For instance, you might do:

     (modify-syntax-entry ?^ "($")
     (modify-syntax-entry ?$ ")^")

...to make ^ and $ match each other (from EmacsWiki).  How would I
make the two character strings '#>' and '<#' match in the same way?
The above doesn't work.

Thanks!
