Hi,

tried some realisations of the matter.

One identifies begin and end of sh-script forms.

Its here:

A more generic tool identifying any THING by its beginnings and ends is here:

https://code.launchpad.net/~a-roehler/s-x-emacs-werkstatt/beg-end.el

You may watch realisation of the latter by calling

ar-blok-atpt

from

https://code.launchpad.net/~a-roehler/s-x-emacs-werkstatt/thing-at-point-utils.el

where `blok' is freely customizable setting begin- and end-strings.

HTH
