find-composition

find-composition is a compiled Lisp function in `composite.el'.

(find-composition POS &optional LIMIT STRING DETAIL-P)

Return information about a composition at or near buffer position POS.

If the character at POS has `composition' property, the value is a list
(FROM TO VALID-P).

FROM and TO specify the range of text that has the same `composition'
property, VALID-P is t if this composition is valid, and nil if not.

If there's no composition at POS, and the optional 2nd argument LIMIT
is non-nil, search for a composition toward the position given by LIMIT.

If no composition is found, return nil.

Optional 3rd argument STRING, if non-nil, is a string to look for a
composition in; nil means the current buffer.

If a valid composition is found and the optional 4th argument DETAIL-P
is non-nil, the return value is a list of the form

(FROM TO COMPONENTS RELATIVE-P MOD-FUNC WIDTH)

COMPONENTS is a vector of integers, the meaning depends on RELATIVE-P.

RELATIVE-P is t if the composition method is relative, else nil.

If RELATIVE-P is t, COMPONENTS is a vector of characters to be
composed. If RELATIVE-P is nil, COMPONENTS is a vector of characters
and composition rules as described in `compose-region'.

MOD-FUNC is a modification function of the composition.

WIDTH is a number of columns the composition occupies on the screen.

When Automatic Composition mode is on, this function also finds a
chunk of text that is automatically composed. If such a chunk is
found closer to POS than the position that has `composition'
property, the value is a list of FROM, TO, and a glyph-string
that specifies how the chunk is to be composed. See the function
`composition-get-gstring' for the format of the glyph-string.
