-;; There are powerful things in this package that aren't turned on by
-;; default. I recommend you to do the following.
-;;
-;; Put the following 2 lines in your .emacs file:
-;; (setq dabbrev-always-check-other-buffers t)
-;; (setq dabbrev-abbrev-char-regexp "\\sw\\|\\s_")
-;;
-;; Dabbrev will now search in all buffers with the same major mode for
-;; your expansions. It will also search for complete symbols, the old
-;; dabbrev package only looked half-heartedly for symbols.
-;;
;; Check out the customizable variables below to learn about all the
;; features of this package.
;; - Check the kill-ring when everything else fails. (Maybe something
;; for hippie-expand?). [Bng] <boris@cs.rochester.edu>

"*Regexp to recognize a character in an abbreviation or expansion.
This regexp will be surrounded with \\\\( ... \\\\) when actually used.
Set this variable to \"\\\\sw\" if you want ordinary words or

+\"\\\\sw\\\\|\\\\s_\" if you want symbols (including characters whose
+syntax is \"symbol\" as well as those whose syntax is \"word\".

-\(the abbreviation is from point to previous word-start, the
-search is for symbols).
+The value nil has a special meaning: the abbreviation is from point to
+previous word-start, but the search is for symbols.
For instance, if you are programming in Lisp, `yes-or-no-p' is a symbol,
-while `yes', `or', `no' and `p' are considered words. If you set this
-variable to nil, then expanding `yes-or-no-' looks for a symbol
+while `yes', `or', `no' and `p' are considered words. If this
+variable is nil, then expanding `yes-or-no-' looks for a symbol
starting with or containing `no-'. If you set this variable to
\"\\\\sw\\\\|\\\\s_\", that expansion looks for a symbol starting with
`yes-or-no-'. Finally, if you set this variable to \"\\\\sw\", then
The recommended value is \"\\\\sw\\\\|\\\\s_\".")
