Dear buffer-view/cursor-experts, I'm looking for a possibility to decide if the current cursor position is inside the word the user currently is "creating". Is there any infrastructure in place to help to solve that problem? I imagine something like a range variable starting to exist when the first character of a word is entered, growing until the user leaves this area or enters some delimiter like space or punctuation. When the word is complete this range should vanish (become empty). The only thing far related to this is the anchor of cursor, AFAICS. If nothing useful exists - where to add this? How many cursors exists in parallel? I think it should be added there. Any other idea? Stephan
