Re: up-list gives error inside strings

[Richard Stallman]

    Calling `up-list' inside a string gives this error:
    up-list: Scan error: "Unbalanced parentheses", 14, 19


    This is obviously not the case in this example:

    (setq foo "bar")
                ^ point

These commands do not know that they are starting from inside a string.

It may now be possible to make them understand that, using
syntax-ppss.  If someone wants to start implementing this, please go
ahead; it could be installed in a later release.
