23 ;;; Commentary:
25 ;; The main exported function is `syntax-ppss'. You might also need
26 ;; to call `syntax-ppss-flush-cache' or to add it to
27 ;; before-change-functions'(although this is automatically done by
28 ;; syntax-ppss when needed, but that might fail if syntax-ppss is
29 ;; called in a context where before-change-functions is temporarily
30 ;; let-bound to nil).
32 ;;; Todo:
34 ;; - do something about the case where the syntax-table is changed.
35 ;; This typically happens with tex-mode and its `$' operator.
36 ;; - new functions `syntax-state', ... to replace uses of parse-partial-state
37 ;; with something higher-level (similar to syntax-ppss-context).
38 ;; - interaction with mmm-mode.
40 ;;; Code:
42 ;; Note: PPSS stands for `parse-partial-sexp state'

51 ;; Rather than a -functions hook, this is a -function because it's easier
52 ;; to do a single scan than several scans: with multiple scans, one cannot
53 ;; assume that the text before point has been propertized, so syntax-ppss
54 ;; gives unreliable results (and stores them in its cache to boot, so we'd
55 ;; have to flush that cache between each function, and we couldn't use
56 ;; syntax-ppss-flush-cache since that would not only flush the cache but also
57 ;; reset syntax-propertize--done which should not be done in this case).
58 "Mode-specific function to apply `syntax-table' text properties.
59 It is the work horse of `syntax-propertize', which is called by things like
60 Font-Lock and indentation.
62 It is given two arguments, START and END: the start and end of the text to
63 which `syntax-table' might need to be applied. Major modes can use this to
64 override the buffer's syntax table for special syntactic constructs that
65 cannot be handled just by the buffer's syntax-table.
67 The specified function may call `syntax-ppss' on any position
68 before END, but it should not call `syntax-ppss-flush-cache',
69 which means that it should not call `syntax-ppss' on some
70 position and later modify the buffer on some earlier position.")

140 The function will scan the buffer, applying the rules where they match.
141 The buffer is scanned a single time, like \"lex\" would, rather than once
142 per rule.
144 Each RULE can be a symbol, in which case that symbol's value should be,
145 at macro-expansion time, a precompiled set of rules, as returned
146 by `syntax-propertize-precompile-rules'.
148 Otherwise, RULE should have the form (REGEXP HIGHLIGHT1 ... HIGHLIGHTn), where
149 REGEXP is an expression (evaluated at time of macro-expansion) that returns
150 a regexp, and where HIGHLIGHTs have the form (NUMBER SYNTAX) which means to
151 apply the property SYNTAX to the chars matched by the subgroup NUMBER
152 of the regular expression, if NUMBER did match.
153 SYNTAX is an expression that returns a value to apply as `syntax-table'
154 property. Some expressions are handled specially:
155 - if SYNTAX is a string, then it is converted with `string-to-syntax';
156 - if SYNTAX has the form (prog1 EXP . EXPS) then the value returned by EXP
157 will be applied to the buffer before running EXPS and if EXP is a string it
158 is also converted with `string-to-syntax'.
159 The SYNTAX expression is responsible to save the `match-data' if needed
160 for subsequent HIGHLIGHTs.
161 Also SYNTAX is free to move point, in which case RULES may not be applied to
162 some parts of the text or may be applied several times to other parts.
