Erroneously matches sub-words?

[dleslie]

I noticed this behaviour just after submitting the Scheme support, but it matches the existing behaviour found in the elisp support.

I think it's best described in code:

Should those new not tests pass? They do not at present, and I suspect it's because \\j word boundaries aren't working as intended. Unless the intent is to match sub-words. ;)

Thanks for opening this! This is probably related to this: #181 and #179 That is, it's about what emacs is getting at point. I think. You can verify by turning on the debug flag which is described in the readme. Please let me know what you find. Thanks!

I was under the impression the not tests were applied directly to the underlying search provider, be it rg, ag or other? Anyhow...

For this:
(defun tester () ...)

thing-at-point will be tester for either sexp or symbol; but I'm looking for the definition of test. I can see people wanting this sort of result to show up, however, because they may be trying to recall the full name of a function that they can only recall the prefix for. Hence the bug in the form of a question. 😄

Ohhh, I see now. Sorry, when I first read this it was on my phone and clearly read it too fast and assumed it was the issue(s) I mentioned. I see what you're saying now and will look closer soon.

This issue can be closed now, right @jacktasia?

[jacktasia]

@netromdk Yeah, that's my understanding. I am closing it. @dleslie Please let me know if you're still running into issues.
