String property values are not inspectable

[yantar92]

To reproduce:

(inspector-inspect (propertize "foo" 'data '#1=(1 #1#)))

[mmontone]

Will add soon. Thanks for reporting.

[mmontone]

Strings text properties are inspectable now

[mmontone]

Using object-intervals now.

[yantar92]

Note that object-intervals is only available since Emacs 28.

[mmontone]

Ok. Do you have suggestion of what to do for Emacs < 28 ?

[yantar92]

No great ideas, unfortunately. I just know an ugly workaround. See https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/tree/lisp/org-fold-core.el#n1450

[mmontone]

Ok. I'll have a look. Worst case don't provide text-properties inspection for Emacs < 28.

[mmontone]

Implemented it like that and it works. Tested on Emacs 27.2

[yantar92]

A small annoyance is that string is not fontified as string.

[yantar92]

It would also be nice to support some extra features for standard text properties and special symbols:

1. Function symbols may have an extra button to go to Help buffer. Same for faces, variables, etc
2. Faces can be fontified as they are defined
3. Face specs, like background/foreground could be fontified accordingly
4. Composition can be interpreted as it is done in M-x describe-char

[mmontone]

Good idea.
I don't understand point 4), though.
