Make going forward defun work correctly with comments

[czipperz]

I don't know how to write a test for this because it requires the buffer to be fontified, and I don't know how to do that in batch mode.

module Test where

{- documentation here -}
fun = 13

{- document this function -}
f = 23

This patch makes going forward defuns (C-M-e) correctly go over comments.
M-< C-M-e gets you to line 2, C-M-e again gets you to line 5, C-M-e again gets you to line 8.

Before it would take you to lines 4, 7, and 8, respectively.

If I'm not mistaken this should work for you:

(ert-deftest haskell-mode-test ()
  (should (with-temp-buffer
            (haskell-mode) ;; enabling Haskell mode should fontify temporal buffer
            (eq t whatever))))

Tried that, doesnt work

Maybe I have to run syntax-ppss-flush-cache after adding the text (instead of before)... lol

(font-lock-fontify-buffer) is what you are looking for.

That works thanks!

Force pushed squashed some tests in
