(The mode ;; command should make it buffer-local and set it to provide the set up.) (defvar font-lock-defaults nil "Defaults for Font Lock mode specified by the major mode. Defaults should be of the form: (KEYWORDS KEYWORDS-ONLY CASE-FOLD SYNTAX-ALIST SYNTAX-BEGIN ...) KEYWORDS may be a symbol (a variable or function whose value is the keywords to use for fontification) or a list of symbols. If KEYWORDS-ONLY is non-nil, syntactic fontification (strings and comments) is not performed. If CASE-FOLD is non-nil, the case of the keywords is ignored when fontifying. If SYNTAX-ALIST is non-nil, it should be a list of cons pairs of the form \(CHAR-OR-STRING . STRING) used to set the local Font Lock syntax table, for keyword and syntactic fontification (see `modify-syntax-entry'). If SYNTAX-BEGIN is non-nil, it should be a function with no args used to move backwards outside any enclosing syntactic block, for syntactic fontification. Typical values are `beginning-of-line' (i.e., the start of the line is known to be outside a syntactic block), or `beginning-of-defun' for programming modes or `backward-paragraph' for textual modes (i.e., the mode-dependent function is known to move outside a syntactic block). If nil, the beginning of the buffer is used as a position outside of a syntactic block, in the worst case. These item elements are used by Font Lock mode to set the variables `font-lock-keywords', `font-lock-keywords-only', `font-lock-keywords-case-fold-search', `font-lock-syntax-table' and `font-lock-beginning-of-syntax-function', respectively. Further item elements are alists of the form (VARIABLE . VALUE) and are in no particular order. Each VARIABLE is made buffer-local before set to VALUE. Currently, appropriate variables include `font-lock-mark-block-function'. If this is non-nil, it should be a function with no args used to mark any enclosing block of text, for fontification via \\[font-lock-fontify-block]. Typical values are `mark-defun' for programming modes or `mark-paragraph' for textual modes (i.e., the mode-dependent function is known to put point and mark around a text block relevant to that mode). Other variables include that for syntactic keyword fontification, `font-lock-syntactic-keywords' and those for buffer-specialized fontification functions, `font-lock-fontify-buffer-function', `font-lock-unfontify-buffer-function', `font-lock-fontify-region-function', `font-lock-unfontify-region-function', `font-lock-inhibit-thing-lock' and `font-lock-maximum-size'.")

FONT-LOCK-DEFAULTS) where MAJOR-MODE is a symbol and FONT-LOCK-DEFAULTS is a list of default settings. See the variable `font-lock-defaults', which takes precedence.")

With arg, turn Font Lock mode off if and only if arg is a non-positive number; if arg is nil, toggle Font Lock mode; anything else turns Font Lock on. \(Font Lock is also known as \"syntax highlighting\".) 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'. To customize the faces (colors, fonts, etc.) used by Font Lock for fontifying different parts of buffer text, use \\[customize-face]. 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) Alternatively, you can use Global Font Lock mode to automagically turn on Font Lock mode in buffers whose major mode supports it and whose major mode is one of `font-lock-global-modes'. For example, put in your ~/.emacs: (global-font-lock-mode t) There are a number of support modes that may be used to speed up Font Lock mode in various ways, specified via the variable `font-lock-support-mode'. Where major modes support different levels of fontification, you can use the variable `font-lock-maximum-decoration' to specify which level you generally prefer. When you turn Font Lock mode on/off the buffer is fontified/defontified, though fontification occurs only if the buffer is less than `font-lock-maximum-size'. For example, to specify that Font Lock mode use use Lazy Lock mode as a support mode and use maximum levels of fontification, put in your ~/.emacs: (setq font-lock-support-mode 'lazy-lock-mode) (setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t) To add your own highlighting for some major mode, and modify the highlighting selected automatically via the variable `font-lock-maximum-decoration', you can use `font-lock-add-keywords'. To fontify a buffer, without turning on Font Lock mode and regardless of buffer size, you can use \\[font-lock-fontify-buffer]. To fontify a block (the function or paragraph containing point, or a number of lines around point), perhaps because modification on the current line caused syntactic change on other lines, you can use \\[font-lock-fontify-block]. See the variable `font-lock-defaults-alist' for the Font Lock mode default settings. You can set your own default settings for some mode, by setting a buffer local value for `font-lock-defaults', via its mode hook. The above is the default behavior of `font-lock-mode'; you may specify your own function which is called when `font-lock-mode' is toggled via `font-lock-function'.

I've always ;; balked at that way, as I see it as just re-moulding the same problem in ;; another form. That is; some person would still have to keep track of which ;; modes (which may not even be distributed with Emacs) support Font Lock mode. ;; The list would always be out of date. And that person might have to be me. ;; Implementation. ;; ;; In a previous discussion the following hack came to mind. It is a gross ;; hack, but it generally works. We use the convention that major modes start ;; by calling the function `kill-all-local-variables', which in turn runs ;; functions on the hook variable `change-major-mode-hook'. We attach our ;; function `font-lock-change-major-mode' to that hook. Of course, when this ;; hook is run, the major mode is in the process of being changed and we do not ;; know what the final major mode will be. So, `font-lock-change-major-mode' ;; only (a) notes the name of the current buffer, and (b) adds our function ;; `turn-on-font-lock-if-enabled' to the hook variables `find-file-hook' and ;; `post-command-hook' (for buffers that are not visiting files). By the time ;; the functions on the first of these hooks to be run are run, the new major ;; mode is assumed to be in place. This way we get a Font Lock function run ;; when a major mode is turned on, without knowing major modes or their hooks. ;; ;; Naturally this requires that (a) major modes run `kill-all-local-variables', ;; as they are supposed to do, and (b) the major mode is in place after the ;; file is visited or the command that ran `kill-all-local-variables' has ;; finished, whichever the sooner. Arguably, any major mode that does not ;; follow the convension (a) is broken, and I can't think of any reason why (b) ;; would not be met (except `gnudoit' on non-files). However, it is not clean. ;; ;; Probably the cleanest solution is to have each major mode function run some ;; hook, e.g., `major-mode-hook', but maybe implementing that change is ;; impractical. I am personally against making `setq' a macro or be advised, ;; or have a special function such as `set-major-mode', but maybe someone can ;; come up with another solution? ;; User interface. ;; ;; Although Global Font Lock mode is a pseudo-mode, I think that the user ;; interface should conform to the usual Emacs convention for modes, i.e., a ;; command to toggle the feature (`global-font-lock-mode') with a variable for ;; finer control of the mode's behaviour (`font-lock-global-modes'). ;; ;; The feature should not be enabled by loading font-lock.el, since other ;; mechanisms for turning on Font Lock mode, such as M-x font-lock-mode RET or ;; (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock), would cause Font Lock mode to be ;; turned on everywhere. That would not be intuitive or informative because ;; loading a file tells you nothing about the feature or how to control it. It ;; would also be contrary to the Principle of Least Surprise. sm.
