Function: treesit-thing-prev

treesit-thing-prev is a byte-compiled function defined in treesit.el.gz.

Signature

(treesit-thing-prev POS THING &optional PARSER)

Documentation

Return the previous THING at POS.

The returned node, if non-nil, must be before POS, i.e., its end
<= POS.

THING should be a thing defined in treesit-thing-settings, or a predicate as described in treesit-thing-settings.

If PARSER is non-nil, only use that parser's parse tree. Otherwise each parser covering point is tried from most specific (deepest embedded) to least specific. If there are multiple parsers with the same embed level at POS, which parser is tried first is undefined. If PARSER is a language symbol, the parsers tried are limited to ones for that language.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 30.1.
