Char-tables have certain extra features to make them more useful for many jobs that involve assigning information to character codes—for example, a char-table can have a parent to inherit from, a default value, and a small number of extra slots to use for special purposes. A char-table can also specify a single value for a whole character set. </p> <p>The printed representation of a char-table is like a vector except that there is an extra ‘<samp>#^</samp>’ at the beginning.<a id="DOCF1" href="#FOOT1"><sup>1</sup></a> </p> <p>See <a href="char_002dtables">Char-Tables</a>, for special functions to operate on char-tables. Uses of char-tables include: </p> <ul> <li> Case tables (see <a href="case-tables">Case Tables</a>). </li> +<li> Character category tables (see <a href="categories">Categories</a>). </li> +<li> Display tables (see <a href="display-tables">Display Tables</a>). </li> +<li> Syntax tables (see <a href="syntax-tables">Syntax Tables</a>). </li> +</ul><div class="_attribution"> + <p class="_attribution-p"> + Copyright © 1990-1996, 1998-2022 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <br>Licensed under the GNU GPL license.<br> + <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Char_002dTable-Type.html" class="_attribution-link">https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Char_002dTable-Type.html</a> + </p> +</div> |
