27;; This file provides routines for getting the "thing" at the location of
28;; point, whatever that "thing" happens to be. The "thing" is defined by
7a8f27db 29;; its beginning and end positions in the buffer.
1a2b6c52
RS
30;;
31;; The function bounds-of-thing-at-point finds the beginning and end
c851323f 32;; positions by moving first forward to the end of the "thing", and then
1a2b6c52 33;; backwards to the beginning. By default, it uses the corresponding
c851323f 34;; forward-"thing" operator (eg. forward-word, forward-line).
1a2b6c52
RS
35;;
36;; Special cases are allowed for using properties associated with the named
f1180544 37;; "thing":
1a2b6c52 38;;
c851323f 39;; forward-op Function to call to skip forward over a "thing" (or
1a2b6c52 40;; with a negative argument, backward).
f1180544 41;;
c851323f
RS
42;; beginning-op Function to call to skip to the beginning of a "thing".
43;; end-op Function to call to skip to the end of a "thing".
1a2b6c52
RS
44;;
45;; Reliance on existing operators means that many `things' can be accessed
46;; without further code: eg.
47;; (thing-at-point 'line)
48;; (thing-at-point 'page)
