Looking at the elect-pair file it seems to be related with: `electric-pair-post-self-insert-function' that hard-coded the condition to call `electric-pair-inhibit-predicate' with: (memq syntax '(?\( ?\" ?\$)) So, for other pairs, the function electric-pair-inhibit-predicate is never called.The above condition looks at the _syntax_ of a character, not at the character itself. So what do you find "hard-coded" there,and what kind of pairs of characters did you want to add that don't have one of those syntaxes?
Hi Eli: I wanted to add "<>" so I added to my init: (add-to-list 'electric-pair-pairs '(?< . ?>)) But I wanted to restrict the electric-insertion only to when the region was active; else using `<` to compare may be wrong; so I thought that implementing my own `electric-pair-inhibit-predicate' in a simple way like more or less: (if (and (eq char ?<) (not (use-region-p))) t (electric-pair-default-inhibit)) could make the trick, but this doesn't work as I thought. I don't knowif there is a better way to go around this.
