(compilation-mode-font-lock-keywords, rmail-summary-font-lock-keywords, dired-font-lock-keywords, shell-font-lock-keywords, texi-font-lock-keywords, perl-font-lock-keywords): Deleted. (font-lock-mode): Doc fix; use add/remove-hook, not setq; removed make-local-variable of font-lock-no-comments. (font-lock-set-defaults): Do it there, and use: (font-lock-defaults-alist): Use it to set font-lock-keywords, font-lock-keywords-case-fold-search and font-lock-no-comments. (turn-on-font-lock): New function. (font-lock-fontify-buffer): Made interruptible; deleted messages. (font-lock-fontify-region): Made syntax state reliable by widening within new restriction; let cstart and cend for speed; outputs message. (font-lock-after-change-function): Remove spurious goto-char and use forward-line, not 1+ end-of-line, for end of fontification region. (font-lock-any-properties-p): Removed, use text-property-not-all. (font-lock-*-face): facename values are themselves. (font-lock-variable-name-face, font-lock-reference-face): New vars. (font-lock-doc-string-face): Removed. (font-lock-keywords): Extended value syntax. (font-lock-hack-keywords): Cope with it; outputs initial message. Merged in face-lock.el: (font-lock-display-type, font-lock-background-mode) (font-lock-face-attributes): New variables, use it. (font-lock-make-face): New function, use them.

;; Electric Font Lock Mode
;; Copyright (C) 1992, 1993, 1994 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

;; Author: jwz, then rms
;; Maintainer: FSF
;; Keywords: languages, faces

;; This file is part of GNU Emacs.

;; displayed in one face, strings in another, reserved words in another,
;; documentation strings in another, and so on.
;;
;; Comments will be displayed in `font-lock-comment-face'.
;; Strings will be displayed in `font-lock-string-face'.
;; Doc strings will be displayed in `font-lock-doc-string-face'.
;; Function and variable names (in their defining forms) will be
;;  displayed in `font-lock-function-name-face'.
;; Reserved words will be displayed in `font-lock-keyword-face'.
;;
;; To make the text you type be fontified, use M-x font-lock-mode.
;; When this minor mode is on, the fonts of the current line are
;; updated with every insertion or deletion.
;;
;; To define new reserved words or other patterns to highlight, use
;; the `font-lock-keywords' variable.  This should be mode-local.
;;
;; To turn this on automatically, add this to your .emacs file:
;;
;;	(setq emacs-lisp-mode-hook '(lambda () (font-lock-mode 1)))
;;
;; On a Sparc2, the initial fontification takes about 12 seconds for a 120k
;; file of C code, using the default configuration.  You can speed this up
;; substantially by removing some of the patterns that are highlighted by
;; default.  Fontifying Lisp code is significantly faster, because Lisp has a
;; more regular syntax than C, so the expressions don't have to be as hairy.

;;; Code:

(defvar font-lock-comment-face
  'italic
  "Face to use for comments.")

(defvar font-lock-doc-string-face
  'italic
  "Face to use for documentation strings.")

(defvar font-lock-string-face
  'underline
  "Face to use for string constants.")

(defvar font-lock-function-name-face
  'bold-italic
  "Face to use for function names.")

(defvar font-lock-keyword-face
  'bold
  "Face to use for keywords.")

(defvar font-lock-type-face
  'italic
  "Face to use for data types.")

(defvar font-lock-no-comments nil
  "Non-nil means Font-Lock shouldn't check for comments or strings.")

(make-variable-buffer-local 'font-lock-keywords)
(defvar font-lock-keywords nil
  "*The keywords to highlight.
If this is a list, then elements may be of the forms:

  \"string\"			  ; A regexp to highlight in the 
				  ;  `font-lock-keyword-face'.
  (\"string\" . N)  	          ; Highlight subexpression N of the regexp.
  (\"string\" . face-name)	  ; Use the named face
  (\"string\" N face-name)        ; Both of the above
  (\"string\" N face-name t)      ; This allows highlighting to override
				  ;  already-highlighted regions.
  (\"string\" N face-name keep)   ; This allows highlighting to occur
				  ; even if some parts of what STRING matches
				  ; are already highlighted--but does not alter
				  ; the existing highlighting of those parts.

These regular expressions should not match text which spans lines.
While \\[font-lock-fontify-buffer] handles multi-line patterns correctly,
updating when you edit the buffer does not,
since it considers text one line at a time.

Be careful composing regexps for this list; the wrong pattern can dramatically
slow things down!")

;; Electric Font Lock Mode
;; Copyright (C) 1992, 1993, 1994 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

;; Author: jwz, then rms and sm ([e-mail])
;; Maintainer: FSF
;; Keywords: languages, faces

;; This file is part of GNU Emacs.

;; displayed in one face, strings in another, reserved words in another,
;; documentation strings in another, and so on.
;;
;; Comments will be displayed in `font-lock-comment-face'.
;; Strings will be displayed in `font-lock-string-face'.
;; Regexps are used to display selected patterns in other faces.
;;
;; To make the text you type be fontified, use M-x font-lock-mode.
;; When this minor mode is on, the fonts of the current line are
;; updated with every insertion or deletion.
;;
;; To define new reserved words or other patterns to highlight, use
;; the `font-lock-keywords' variable.  This should be mode-local.
;;
;; To turn this on automatically, add this to your .emacs file:
;;
;;	(setq emacs-lisp-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)
;;
;; On a Sparc2, the initial fontification takes about 10 seconds for a 120k
;; file of C code using the default configuration, and about 25 seconds using
;; the more extensive configuration, though times also depend on file contents.
;; You can speed this up substantially by removing some of the patterns that
;; are highlighted by default.  Fontifying Lisp code is significantly faster,
;; because Lisp has a more regular syntax than C, so the expressions don't have
;; to be as hairy.
;;
;; Nasty regexps of the form "bar\\(\\|lo\\)\\|f\\(oo\\|u\\(\\|bar\\)\\)\\|lo"
;; are made thusly: (make-regexp '("foo" "fu" "fubar" "bar" "barlo" "lo")) for
;; efficiency.  See /pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive/functions/make-regexp.el.Z on
;; archive.cis.ohio-state.edu for this and other functions.

where HIGHLIGHT should be of the form (MATCH FACENAME OVERRIDE LAXMATCH).
REGEXP is the regexp to search for, MATCH is the subexpression of REGEXP to be
highlighted, FACENAME is an expression whose value is the face name to use.
FACENAME's default attributes may be defined in `font-lock-face-attributes'.

OVERRIDE and LAXMATCH are flags.  If OVERRIDE is t, existing fontification may
be overriden.  If `keep', only parts not already fontified are highlighted.
If LAXMATCH is non-nil, no error is signalled if there is no MATCH in REGEXP.

These regular expressions should not match text which spans lines.  While
\\[font-lock-fontify-buffer] handles multi-line patterns correctly, updating
when you edit the buffer does not, since it considers text one line at a time.

the wrong pattern can dramatically slow things down!")

  "Toggle Font Lock mode.
With arg, turn Font Lock mode on if and only if arg is positive.

When Font Lock mode is enabled, text is fontified as you type it:

 - Comments are displayed in `font-lock-comment-face';
 - Strings are displayed in `font-lock-string-face';
 - Certain other expressions are displayed in other faces according to the
   value of the variable `font-lock-keywords'.

You can enable Font Lock mode in any major mode automatically by turning on in
the major mode's hook.  For example, put in your ~/.emacs:

 (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)

Or for any visited file with the following in your ~/.emacs:

 (add-hook 'find-file-hooks 'turn-on-font-lock)

The default Font Lock mode faces and their attributes are defined in the
variable `font-lock-face-attributes', and Font Lock mode default settings in
the variable `font-lock-defaults-alist'.

When you turn Font Lock mode on/off, the buffer is fontified/defontified.
To fontify a buffer without having newly typed text become fontified, you
can use \\[font-lock-fontify-buffer]."
