From abd18254aec76b26e86ae27e91d2c916ec20cc46 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wilfred Hughes Date: Sun, 10 Dec 2017 13:34:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Ensure that we can find definitions when buffer is narrowed find-function-search-for-symbol will reuse the existing buffer if we've already opened the file that contains this symbol. However, if the user has narrowed that buffer, we can't find definitions outside the narrowed area. Instead, search the whole file to find definitions, and teach the help buttons to widen if necessary. * lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el (find-function-search-for-symbol): Search the whole buffer for the target symbol. * lisp/help-mode.el: Help buttons now widen the target buffer, if narrowing is in effect and the target position is not in that range. --- lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el | 46 +++++++++++++++++++----------------- lisp/help-mode.el | 45 +++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- 2 files changed, 56 insertions(+), 35 deletions(-) diff --git a/lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el b/lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el index 29c42f36938..84cc8bc9b72 100644 --- a/lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el +++ b/lisp/emacs-lisp/find-func.el @@ -368,28 +368,30 @@ The search is done in the source for library LIBRARY."
