[comp.emacs] Lisp syntax

jcgs@harlqn.harlqn.uucp (John Sturdy) (03/09/89)

I'd like to get the Lisp printing construct #<something unusual> to be
parsed correctly by the emacs motion commands (forward-sexp etc),
either as being a level of bracketing, or as a comment. Could anyone
tell me how to do this? I thought of using the two-character-comment
feature, but I can't see how to get it to handle a the single > at the
end. (Of course, I want < and > to be treated as symbols in their
proper context, too!)
