I am defining a major mode that works on paragraphs of the following nature:
: Identifier
1. some text
2. ...
3. some more text
: New Identifier
: Another Identifier
some text
I want to write a defun
called get-paragraphs
that will return a list that looks like:
( ("Identifier", ("1. some text", "2. ...", "3. some more text")),
("New Identifier", ()),
("Another Identifier", ("some text"))
)
How do I go about cutting up the text like this in Emacs Lisp:
Is there a function to iterate through them (and subsequently chop them up to my liking)? Should I use regular expressions? Is there an easier way?
You should iterate over the buffer and collect your text (untested):
