backward-up-list

[Andreas Roehler]

Emacs -q

Don't understand behaviour of `backward-up-list'

in `emacs-lisp-mode' if inside a string. Bug?

;;;;;;

Cursor at pipe

(defun foo ()
 " "
 (message "%s" "baz"))
__________________|______

C-M-u

-> up-list: Scan error: "Unbalanced parentheses", 39, 1

The same works well in text-mode

(defun foo ()
 " "
 (message "%s" "baz"))
__|_______________________

C-M-u

->

(defun foo ()
 " "
 (message "%s" "baz"))
 ^

as expected.
