What does the "function search_enumerator_operator" in compiler/symtable.pas do?

Does FPC support enumerator operator overloading? If yes, how?

There doesn't seem to be any information on this topic in the docs: http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/3.0.0/ref/refch15.html#x207-22800015

It's mentioned here:
http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/3.0.0/ref/refsu60.html#x165-18600013.2.5 Maybe a cross reference should be added...

Thanks! I didn't get the idea to look in the for-in documentation.

If you want to do it systematically then the whole enumerator-operator information should be moved from for-in page into the operator overloading chapter. All operator overloading information is there.

Compare it e.g. with the arithmetic operators:

http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/3.0.0/ref/refsu46.html#x148-16900012.8.1 : *no information about operator overloading.*
because the information is here:
http://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/3.0.0/ref/refse101.html#x211-23200015.4

I will create a small section and a cross-reference in operator overloading chapter.
