REVISION SUMMARY Returns whether the character @p c is a word delimiter. A delimiter defines whether a characters is a word boundary. Internally, delimiters are used for matching keyword lists. As example, typcally the dot '.' is a word delimiter. However, if you have a keyword in a keyword list that contains a dot, you have to add the dot to the @e weakDeliminator attribute of the @e general section in your highlighting definition. Similarly, sometimes additional delimiters are required, which can be specified in @e additionalDeliminator. Checking whether a characters is a delimiter is useful for instance if text is selected with double click. Typically, the whole word should be selected in this case. Similarly to the example above, the dot '.' usually acts as word delimiter. However, using this function you can implement text selection in such a way that keyword lists are correctly selected.
