(hi-lock-mode): Toggling hi-lock-mode now affects all buffers. When hi-lock turned on rather than only checking current buffer for regexps, all buffers are checked. Moved activation of font-lock to hi-lock-refontify. When font-lock turned off rather than removing added highlighting just in current buffer, remove it in all buffers. Changed edit menu text from "Automatic Highlighting" to "Regexp Highlighting" Documentation for highlighting phrases, minor documentation changes. (hi-lock-set-file-patterns): Execute only if there are new or existing file patterns. (hi-lock-refontify): Assume font-lock-fontify-buffer will first unfontify and, if a support mode is active, will not refontify the whole buffer. If necessary, turn on font lock. (Removed font-lock-unfontify and font-lock support-mode-specific calls, such as lazy-lock-fontify-window.) (hi-lock-find-patterns): Do not turn on hi-lock-mode even if patterns are found. Not useful now since find-file-hook is removed if hi-lock is off, but may be needed for per-buffer hi-lock activation. (hi-lock-face-phrase-buffer): New function. Also added related menu item and keybinding. (highlight-phrase): New alias, to hi-lock-face-phrase-buffer. (hi-lock-process-phrase): New function. (hi-lock-line-face-buffer): Doc fixes. (hi-lock-face-buffer): Doc fixes. (hi-lock-unface-buffer): Doc fixes.

@appendix Standard Hooks

The following is a list of hook variables that let you provide
functions to be called from within Emacs on suitable occasions. 

Most of these variables have names ending with @samp{-hook}.  They are
@dfn{normal hooks}, run by means of @code{run-hooks}.  The value of such
a hook is a list of functions; the functions are called with no
arguments and their values are completely ignored.  The recommended way
to put a new function on such a hook is to call @code{add-hook}.
@xref{Hooks}, for more information about using hooks.

The variables whose names end in @samp{-hooks} or @samp{-functions} are
usually @dfn{abnormal hooks}; their values are lists of functions, but
these functions are called in a special way (they are passed arguments,
or their values are used).  A few of these variables are actually normal
hooks which were named before we established the convention that normal
hooks' names should end in @samp{-hook}.

The variables whose names end in @samp{-function} have single functions
as their values.  (In older Emacs versions, some of these variables had
names ending in @samp{-hook} even though they were not normal hooks;
however, we have renamed all of those.)

@c !!! need  xref  to where each hook is documented or else document it
@c by specifying what is expected, and when it is called relative to
@c mode initialization.
