Subject: Summary: Improve sexp-based movement in message-mode
X-Git-Tag: emacs-25.0.90~2475
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=25449e7296fe6e5cd9bca49ae1bc52d1552d5324;p=emacs.git

Summary: Improve sexp-based movement in message-mode

Works by giving citations and smileys a different syntax.  This helps
modes like `show-paren-mode', `electric-pair-mode', and C-M-*
sexp-based movement.

* lisp/gnus/message.el (message--syntax-propertize): New function.
(message-mode): Set syntax-related vars.
(message-smileys): New variable.

* test/automated/message-mode-tests.el: New file
