  Description     : increase selected region by semantic units

Expand region increases the selected region by semantic units. Just keep
pressing the key until it selects what you want.

Expand region works fairly well with most languages, due to the general
nature of the basic expansions. However, most languages also will benefit
from some specially crafted expansions. You can add your own expansions to the
languages of your choice simply by creating a function that looks around point
to see if it's inside or looking at the construct you want to mark, and if
so - mark it.
