abbreviation definitions with non word characters

[H. Dieter Wilhelm]

Hello,

does somebody have an example with the use of :regexp in the property
list of abbreviation tables?

Thanks you

I think there are examples in python.el, fortran.el, and f90.el (tho
the last two are probably identical).

from fortan.el:

...

            (";w"    . "write"             )
            (";wh"   . "where"             )))
  "Abbrev table for Fortran mode."
  ;; Accept ; as the first char of an abbrev.  Also allow _ in abbrevs.
  :regexp "\\(?:[^[:word:]_;]\\|^\\)\\(;?[[:word:]_]+\\)[^[:word:]_]*")

Thank you, exactly what I was looking for!

      Dieter
