tarsius No longer treat incomplete searches as non-matches 
We search for text that matches the keyword regexp.  When there is
a match, then we checked whether the corresponding text is within
a comment or doc-string.  If so, then we considered that a match.

Otherwise, the regexp search succeeded but the syntax check failed,
then we used to consider that a non-match, which is incorrect; what
we have in this case is an incomplete search, not a failed search.

In that case we have to finish the search from the current position.
This can happen repeatedly, so we implement it using a new function
`hl-todo--search', which calls itself to resume an incomplete search.

Fixes #26.

Highlight TODO and similar keywords in comments and strings

To highlight keywords turn on hl-todo-mode in individual buffers or use the the global variant global-hl-todo-mode.

This package also provides commands for moving to the next or previous keyword and to invoke occur with a regexp that matches all known keywords. If you want to use these commands, then you should bind them in hl-todo-mode-map, e.g.:

(define-key hl-todo-mode-map (kbd "C-c p") 'hl-todo-previous)
(define-key hl-todo-mode-map (kbd "C-c n") 'hl-todo-next)
(define-key hl-todo-mode-map (kbd "C-c o") 'hl-todo-occur)

See this list on the Emacswiki for other packages that implement the same basic features, but which might also provide additional features that you might like, but which I don't deem necessary.
