  "Apply FUNCTION to all extents which overlap a region in BUFFER-OR-STRING.
The region is delimited by FROM and TO.  FUNCTION is called with
one argument, the extent.  A list of the values returned by FUNCTION
is returned.  An optional PREDICATE may be used to further limit the
extents over which FUNCTION is mapped.  The optional arguments FLAGS,
PROPERTY, and VALUE may also be used to control the extents passed to
PREDICATE or FUNCTION.  See also `map-extents'."

BUFFER-OR-STRING defaults to the current buffer if omitted.
FROM and TO can be used to limit the range over which extents are
returned; if omitted, all extents in the buffer or string are returned.

More specifically, if a range is specified using FROM and TO, only
extents that overlap the range (i.e. begin or end inside of the range)
are included in the list.  FROM and TO default to the beginning and
end of BUFFER-OR-STRING, respectively.

FLAGS controls how end cases are treated.  For a discussion of this,
and exactly what ``overlap'' means, see `map-extents'.

If you want to map a function over the extents in a buffer or string,
consider using `map-extents' or `mapcar-extents' instead."
