;;; Commentary:
;; This file provides routines for getting the "thing" at the location of
;; point, whatever that "thing" happens to be. The "thing" is defined by
;; its beginning and end positions in the buffer.
;;
;; The function bounds-of-thing-at-point finds the beginning and end
;; positions by moving first forward to the end of the "thing", and then
;; backwards to the beginning. By default, it uses the corresponding
;; forward-"thing" operator (e.g. forward-word, forward-line).
;;
;; Special cases are allowed for using properties associated with the named
;; "thing":
;;
;; forward-op Function to call to skip forward over a "thing" (or
;; with a negative argument, backward).
;;
;; beginning-op Function to call to skip to the beginning of a "thing".
;; end-op Function to call to skip to the end of a "thing".
;;
;; For simple things, defined as sequences of specific kinds of characters,
;; use macro define-thing-chars.
;;
;; Reliance on existing operators means that many `things' can be accessed
;; without further code: eg.
;; (thing-at-point 'line)
;; (thing-at-point 'page)
;;; Code:
(require 'cl-lib)
(provide 'thingatpt)

"Alist of providers for returning a \"thing\" at point.
This variable can be set globally, or appended to buffer-locally
by modes, to provide functions that will return a \"thing\" at
point. The first provider for the \"thing\" that returns a
non-nil value wins.
For instance, a major mode could say:
\(setq-local thing-at-point-provider-alist
(append thing-at-point-provider-alist
\\='((url . my-mode--url-at-point))))
to provide a way to get an `url' at point in that mode. The
provider functions are called with no parameters at the point in
question.
