[PATCH]: Fix (forward-comment 1) when end delimiter is escaped. |
Date: |
Tue, 22 Sep 2020 09:35:50 +0000 |
Hello, Emacs and Stefan.
In the following C comment:
1 /*
2 \*/
3 /**/
, with point at BOL 1, do M-: (forward-comment 1). This leaves point
wrongly at EOL 2. It should end up at EOL 3, since the apparent comment
ender on L2 is actually escaped.
The following patch fixes this. Are there any objections to me
installing it?
