It's not for the sake of generalisation. Below a first
draft and example --with some explanation for the less
experienced--:
Put these definitions at the right place in your
.abbrev_defs, M-x read-abbrev-file,
evaluate the function, put the cursor at the beginning
of the example sentence below:
The first call of `expand-abbrev-after-point' should
deliver "No expansion available" - because no
translation/abbreviation was defined. But the cursor
moved and with repeated calls that sentence is
translated word by word.
("is" "ist" nil 0)
("the" "der" nil 0)
("extensible" "erweiterbare" nil 0)
("customizable" "einrichtbare" nil 0)
("self-documenting" "selbsterklärende" nil 0)
("real-time" "Echtzeit" nil 0)
("display" "Display" nil 0)
("editor" "Editor" nil 0)
(defun expand-abbrev-after-point ()
"Expand abbrev after point if any. "
(interactive "*")
(forward-word 1)
(or (expand-abbrev)
(message "%s" "No translation available")))
Emacs is the extensible, customizable, self-documenting real-time display
editor.
