Subject: bug#14476: 24.3; mapping newline in buffer-display-table confuses posn-at-point
Date: Sun, 26 May 2013 16:44:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8761y5aji6.fsf@kafka.loc> (raw)
this bug ultimately leads to hard to understand column jumping in
buffers where whitespace.el is active (and whitespace-style includes
newline-mark).
a small show case is provided by the following three expressions. the
first two set it up. the third is to demonstrate the bug. tested in
emacs 24.3.1 started with emacs -Q.
(setq buffer-display-table (make-display-table))
(aset buffer-display-table ?\n [?$ ?\n])
(car (posn-x-y (posn-at-point)))
;; C-x C-e with point on the empty line right above this comment will
;; return the column 8 instead of the expected column 0. this leads to
;; seemingly erratic behaviour in some use-cases:
;; entering C-a (beginning-of-line) followed by C-n (next-line) will
;; leave point in column 1 instead of column 0
for any questions or comments feel free to ask away,
jonas
