  * Find the identifier under or to the right of the cursor.
  * "find_type" can have one of three values:
  * FIND_IDENT:   find an identifier (keyword)
- * FIND_STRING:  find any non-white string
- * FIND_IDENT + FIND_STRING: find any non-white string, identifier preferred.
+ * FIND_STRING:  find any non-white text
+ * FIND_IDENT + FIND_STRING: find any non-white text, identifier preferred.
  * FIND_EVAL:	 find text useful for C program debugging
  *
  * There are three steps:
- * 1. Search forward for the start of an identifier/string.  Doesn't move if
+ * 1. Search forward for the start of an identifier/text.  Doesn't move if
  *    already on one.

+ * 2. Search backward for the start of this identifier/text.

+ * 3. Search forward to the end of this identifier/text.
  *    When FIND_IDENT isn't defined, we backup until a blank.
  *
- * Returns the length of the string, or zero if no string is found.
- * If a string is found, a pointer to the string is put in "*string".  This
- * string is not always NUL terminated.
+ * Returns the length of the text, or zero if no text is found.
+ * If text is found, a pointer to the text is put in "*text".  This
