Subject: bug#35898: 26.1; line-beginning-position sometimes does not yield line beginning position
Date: Sat, 25 May 2019 15:23:48 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <878suullaz.fsf@metalevel.at> (raw)


Please download hello.png with:

    $ wget https://www.metalevel.at/ei/hello.png

and then, starting Emacs with "emacs -Q", evaluate the following form:

    (progn
      (goto-char (point-min))
      (save-excursion (insert "\n"))
      (goto-char (+ (point) (cadr (insert-image-file "hello.png"))))
      (line-beginning-position))

This yields 592, whereas I expect it to yield 1.

For comparison, when I do C-a to move to the beginning of the line, it
moves to position 1, as expected.

Is there a way to make line-beginning-position yield the line beginning
position in cases like this? Would you please consider adding this feature?

Thank you and all the best,
Markus
