>From the Elisp manual
>(https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Manipulating-Buttons.html),
> we have these accurate explanations:
— Function: button-at pos
Return the button at position pos in the current buffer, or nil. If the
button at pos is a text property button, the return value is a marker pointing
to pos.
— Function: button-activate button &optional use-mouse-action
Call button's action property (i.e., invoke the function that is the value of
that property, passing it the single argument button). If use-mouse-action is
non-nil, try to invoke the button's mouse-action property instead of action; if
the button has no mouse-action property, use action as normal.
-----
With point on a "Choose" button in a customize-group buffer, point is on
a text-property button and (button-at (point)) returns a marker object
rather than a button whose action is a marker object. Thus, if one
calls (push-button) at that location, it sends this marker object as the
button argument to 'button-activate' which then triggers an error when
it tries to funcall the button's action which is nil in this case.
Shouldn't there be additional logic that checks if the button itself is
a marker and then uses the button as the action in that case?
Related to this: (button-type (button-at (point))) returns nil which seems
to contradict the fact that button-at returns non-nil.
Am I missing things here or does button-activate need additional code?
Thanks,
Bob
