Vl-linecol
Packed representation of a line number and column number.
- Signature
(vl-linecol line col) → linecol
- Arguments
- line — Guard (posp line).
- col — Guard (natp col).
- Returns
- linecol — Type (vl-linecol-p linecol).
Semantically a vl-linecol is nothing more than a product type
whose fields are a line number and a column number. The line number is a posp and the column number is a natp. We provide the usual defprod style interface for accessing this kind of structure.
For efficiency, we pack line/column numbers together into a single integer,
which saves one cons per location. This can save a lot of memory when
processing large files.
