Subject: Extensive docs and tests for `ruby-forward-string' (PATCH)
Date: Fri, 6 Dec 2013 11:15:52 -0600

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

The attached patch adds extensive documentation and tests to the
`ruby-forward-string' function.

This may seem an odd function to document thoroughly, but I spent
quite a while wrapping my head around the exact behavior and I want to
spare the next person.  It also underlies some important parsing
functionality in ruby-mode.

Note the one test which is expected to fail: this represents an
outstanding bug in `ruby-forward-string`.  I'll be (immediately)
following this report with a patch which fixes *that* issue, but it
didn't seem prudent to combine the commits.
