Subject: bug in field-string and field-string-no-properties
Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2003 14:00:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <p04310104bb61a5d84ffb@[198.17.100.22]> (raw)

There appears to be a bug in field-string and 
field-string-no-properties.  When (point) or the POS argument is at 
the first character of a field, the function returns an empty string. 
The following fragment of code, executed in the scratch buffer, 
illustrates the problem.

(progn
   (set-buffer (get-buffer-create "junk"))
   (erase-buffer)
   (insert "Test")
   (put-text-property (point-min) (point-max) 'field 1)
   (message "field-string at 1 = '%s'\nfield-string at 2 = '%s'"
   (field-string-no-properties 1) (field-string-no-properties 2)))


platform:  GNU Emacs 21.2.2 (sparc-sun-solaris2.7, X toolkit)
