-
-;; Hilit19.el is a customizable highlighting package for Emacs19.  It supports
-;; not only source code highlighting, but also Info, RMAIL, VM, gnus...
-;; Hilit19 knows (or thinks it knows) how to highlight emacs buffers in
-;; about 25 different modes.

-;;
-;; GENERAL OVERVIEW
-;;
-;;      This package installs numerous hooks to colorfully highlight your
-;;      source code buffers as well as mail and news buffers.  Most 
-;;      programming languages have predefined highlighting patterns.
-;;	Just load hilit19 and files will be automatically highlighted as
-;;      they're loaded.
-;;
-;;      Rehighlight a buffer by typing C-S-l (control-shift-lowercase-L).
-;;
-;;      If, when you edit the buffer, the coloring gets messed up, just
-;;      redraw and the coloring will be adjusted.  If automatic highlighting
-;;      in the current buffer has been turned off, then typing C-u C-S-l will
-;;	force a rehighlight of the entire buffer.
-;;
-;;      Hilit19 can build faces by examining the names that you give to them
-;;	For example, green/black-bold-italic-underline would be created as
-;;	a face with a green foreground, and a black background, using a 
-;;	bold-italic font...with underlining for good measure.
-;;
-;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
-;;
-;; SETUP -- In your .emacs:
-;;
-;; 
-;; (cond (window-system
-;;        (setq hilit-mode-enable-list  '(not text-mode)
-;;              hilit-background-mode   'light
-;;              hilit-inhibit-hooks     nil
-;;              hilit-inhibit-rebinding nil)
-;; 
-;;        (require 'hilit19)
-;;        ))
-;; 
-;; If you like font-lock-mode and want to use both packages, then you can
-;; disable hilit for the modes in which you want to use font-lock by listing
-;; said modes in hilit-mode-enable-list.
-;; 
-;;      (hilit-translate type     'RoyalBlue   ; enable highlighting in C/C++
-;;			 string	  nil)         ; disable string highlighting
-;;
-;; To get 100% of the utility of hilit19, you may also have to apply the
-;; patches below for info.el and vm5.33L_19/vm-summary.el
-;;
-;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
-;;
-;; SETUP -- Are you using the right font for Emacs?
-;;
-;; Emacs cannot properly find bold and italic fonts unless you specify a
-;; verbose X11 font name.  If you specify a font for emacs in your
-;; .Xdefaults, it *MUST* be specified using the long form of the font name.
-;; Here's a good font menu:
-;;
-;; (setq
-;;  x-fixed-font-alist
-;;  '("Font Menu"
-;;    ("Misc"
-;;     ("6x12" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--12-110-75-75-c-60-*-1")
-;;     ("6x13" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-*-1")
-;;     ("lucida 13"
-;;      "-b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-0-0-0-0-m-0-*-1")

-;; KNOWN BUGS/TO DO LIST/HELP WANTED/APPLY WITHIN
-;;
-;; * unbalanced, unescaped double quote characters can confuse hilit19.
-;;   This will be fixed someday, so don't bug me about it.
-;;
-;; * ALTHOUGH HILIT19 IS FASTER THAN FONT-LOCK-MODE...
-;;   For various reasons, the speed of the package could still stand to be
-;;   improved.  If you care to do a little profiling and make things tighter...
-;;
-;; * hilit-toggle-highlight is flaky when auto-rehighlight is neither t nor nil.
-;;   Does anyone actually USE this?  I think I might just remove it.
-;;
-;; PROJECTS THAT YOU CAN TAKE OVER BECAUSE I DON'T MUCH CARE ABOUT THEM...
-;;
-;; * Moved hilit-wysiwyg-replace here from my version of man.el, this is not
-;;   a bug.  The bug is that I don't have a reverse operation yet...just a
-;;   stub Wysiwyg-anything really belongs in a package of its own.

-;; hilit19.el,v
-;; Revision 2.19  1993/09/08  18:44:10  stig
-;; installed patch for elusive bug in hilit-rehighlight-region that caused
-;; hilit-unhighlight-region to hang in an infinite loop.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.18  1993/08/27  03:51:00  stig
-;; minor mods to lisp-mode and c/c++ mode patterns
-;;
-;; Revision 2.17  1993/08/25  02:19:17  stig
-;; work-around for bug in next-overlay-change that caused dired and jargon-mode
-;; to hang in an endless loop.  Perhaps other modes were doing this too.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.16  1993/08/22  19:46:00  stig
-;; bug fix for next-overlay-change and accompanying change to
-;; hilit-unhighlight-region
-;;
-;; Revision 2.15  1993/08/20  12:16:22  stig
-;; minor change to fortran patterns
-;;
-;; Revision 2.14  1993/08/17  14:12:10  stig
-;; added default face mapping for 'formula' which is needed for new latex
-;; patterns.
-;;
-;; twiddled the calendar-mode patterns a bit.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.13  1993/08/16  04:33:54  stig
-;; hilit-set-mode-patterns was screwing up two part patterns.  it doesn't now.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.12  1993/08/16  00:16:41  stig
-;; changed references to default-bold-italic to just bold-italic because the
-;;   font for that face is maintained by emacs.
-;;
-;; the pattern matcher now starts its searches from the end of the most
-;;   recently highlighted region (which is not necessarily the end of the most
-;;   recently matched regex).
-;;
-;; multiple errors in pattern matcher now just give an error instead of lots of
-;;   annoying messages and dings.
-;;
-;; no longer use vm-summary-mode-hooks.
-;;
-;; some code moved from hilit-highlight-region to hilit-set-mode-patterns.
-;;   This will affect you if you pass your patterns directly to
-;;   hilit-highlight-region....use a pseudo-mode instead.
-;;
-;; pattern changes to C/C++, latex, texinfo, fortran, nroff, etc.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.11  1993/08/13  12:12:37  stig

-;; added calendar-mode, icon-mode and pascal-mode patterns
-;;
-;; commented out hilit-toggle-highlight because I want to phase it out entirely
-;;
-;; Revision 2.9  1993/08/13  08:44:22  stig
-;; added optional case-fold argument to hilit-set-mode-patterns, this case-fold
-;; parameter is now stored in hilit-patterns-alist.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.8  1993/08/12  22:05:03  stig
-;; fixed some typos in documentation
-;;
-;; twiddled some of the color defaults for dark backgrounds
-;;
-;; always get 'mono color defaults if (not (x-display-color-p))
-;;
-;; added hilit-rehighlight-buffer-quietly to dired-after-readin-hook
-;;
-;; fixed bug in hilit-string-find that mishandled strings of the form: "\\"
-;;
-;; NEW FUNCTION: hilit-add-mode-pattern...  kinda like add-hook for patterns
-;;
-;; fixed minor pattern bugs for latex-mode and emacs-lisp-mode
-;;
-;; Revision 2.7  1993/07/30  02:43:01  stig
-;; added const to the list of modifiers for C/C++ types
-;;
-;; Revision 2.6  1993/07/30  00:30:54  stig
-;; now permit selection of arbitrary subexpressions for highlighting...
-;; fixed keyword patterns for C/C++ using this technique.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.5  1993/07/28  05:02:56  stig
-;; improvements to makefile regular expressions
-;; removed about 130 lines just by compacting the big defconst for
-;;   hilit-face-translation-table into a mapcar and defining a separate table
-;;   of default faces.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.4  1993/07/27  14:09:05  stig
-;; documented another "known problem" to "head off gripe mail at the pass."
-;;
-;; Revision 2.3  1993/07/27  02:15:49  stig
-;; (hilit-lookup-face-create) incorporated patch which improves its behavior
-;; with more than one frame...  Still can't have bold on the same face in two
-;; different fonts sizes at the same time...
-;;
-;; Revision 2.2  1993/07/27  02:02:59  stig
-;; vastly improved the makefile patterns
-;; added hook for mh-show-mode
-;;
-;; Revision 2.1  1993/07/24  17:46:21  stig
-;; Phasing out Info-select-hook...  Version 19.18 will use Info-selection-hook.
-;;
-;; Revision 2.0  1993/07/24  13:50:10  stig
-;; better documentation and added the function hilit-submit-feedback.
-;; C-S-l (control shift l) repaints the buffer.  Other bindings are optional.
-;; multi-line highlights no longer cause problems when
-;;   hilit-auto-rehighlight is 'visible
-;; added hilit-predefined-face-list...
-;; changed name of hilit-mode-alist to hilit-patterns-alist
-;; added hilit-message-quietly to mail-setup-hook
-;; added hilit-parser-alist which can be used to apply different patterns to
-;;   different parts of a buffer.  This could be integrated in a far more
-;;   elegant manner, but it presently serves the purpose of not applying
-;;   message header patterns to message bodies in mail-mode and its kin.
-;; hilit-set-mode-patterns now takes a list of modes and an optional parse-fn
-;;

-;; as you can see, I had two similar problems for Pascal and Icon. In
-;; Pascal, strings are delimited with ' and an embedded quote is doubled,
-;; thus string syntax would be extremely simple. However, if a string
-;; occurs within a comment, the following text is considered a string.
-;; 
-;; In Icon, strings are similar to C ones, but there are also charsets,
-;; delimited with simple quotes. I could not manage to use both regexps at
-;; the same time.
-
-;; The problem I have with my patterns for Icon is that this language has a
-;; string similar constant to the C one (but a string can be cut on several
-;; lines, if terminated by a dash and continued with initial blanks, like
-;; this:
-;;         "This is a somewhat long -
-;;          string, written on three -
-;;          successive lines"
-;; in order to insert a double quote in a string, you have to escape it
-;; with a \), bu also a character set constant (named a charset), which
-;; uses single quotes instead of double ones. It would seem intuitive to
-;; highlight both constants in the same way.

-;;; Change Log:
-
-;; moved posting and mail code from rnews.el
-;;	tower@gnu.org Wed Oct 29 1986
-;; brought posting code almost up to the revision of RFC 850 for News 2.11
-;; - couldn't see handling the special meaning of the Keyword: poster
-;; - not worth the code space to support the old A news Title: (which
-;;   Subject: replaced) and Article-I.D.: (which Message-ID: replaced)
-;;	tower@gnu.org Nov 86
-;; changed C-c C-r key-binding due to rename of news-caesar-buffer-body
-;;	tower@gnu.org 21 Nov 86
-;; added (require 'rnews)	tower@gnu.org 22 Apr 87
-;; restricted call of news-show-all-headers in news-post-news & news-reply
-;;	tower@gnu.org 28 Apr 87
-;; commented out Posting-Front-End to save USENET bytes tower@gnu.org Jul 31 87

+;; Hilit19.el is a customizable highlighting package for Emacs19.  It supports
+;; not only source code highlighting, but also Info, RMAIL, VM, gnus...
+;; Hilit19 knows (or thinks it knows) how to highlight emacs buffers in
+;; about 25 different modes.

+;;
+;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
+;;
+;; GENERAL OVERVIEW
+;;
+;;      This package installs numerous hooks to colorfully highlight your
+;;      source code buffers as well as mail and news buffers.  Most 
+;;      programming languages have predefined highlighting patterns.
+;;	Just load hilit19 and files will be automatically highlighted as
+;;      they're loaded.
+;;
+;;      Rehighlight a buffer by typing C-S-l (control-shift-lowercase-L).
+;;
+;;      If, when you edit the buffer, the coloring gets messed up, just
+;;      redraw and the coloring will be adjusted.  If automatic highlighting
+;;      in the current buffer has been turned off, then typing C-u C-S-l will
+;;	force a rehighlight of the entire buffer.
+;;
+;;      Hilit19 can build faces by examining the names that you give to them
+;;	For example, green/black-bold-italic-underline would be created as
+;;	a face with a green foreground, and a black background, using a 
+;;	bold-italic font...with underlining for good measure.
+;;
+;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
+;;
+;; SETUP -- In your .emacs:
+;;
+;; 
+;; (cond (window-system
+;;        (setq hilit-mode-enable-list  '(not text-mode)
+;;              hilit-background-mode   'light
+;;              hilit-inhibit-hooks     nil
+;;              hilit-inhibit-rebinding nil)
+;; 
+;;        (require 'hilit19)
+;;        ))
+;; 
+;; If you like font-lock-mode and want to use both packages, then you can
+;; disable hilit for the modes in which you want to use font-lock by listing
+;; said modes in hilit-mode-enable-list.
+;; 
+;;      (hilit-translate type     'RoyalBlue   ; enable highlighting in C/C++
+;;			 string	  nil)         ; disable string highlighting
+;;
+;; To get 100% of the utility of hilit19, you may also have to apply the
+;; patches below for info.el and vm5.33L_19/vm-summary.el
+;;
+;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
+;;
+;; SETUP -- Are you using the right font for Emacs?
+;;
+;; Emacs cannot properly find bold and italic fonts unless you specify a
+;; verbose X11 font name.  If you specify a font for emacs in your
+;; .Xdefaults, it *MUST* be specified using the long form of the font name.
+;; Here's a good font menu:
+;;
+;; (setq
+;;  x-fixed-font-alist
+;;  '("Font Menu"
+;;    ("Misc"
+;;     ("6x12" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--12-110-75-75-c-60-*-1")
+;;     ("6x13" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-*-1")
+;;     ("lucida 13"

+;; KNOWN BUGS/TO DO LIST/HELP WANTED/APPLY WITHIN
+;;
+;; * unbalanced, unescaped double quote characters can confuse hilit19.
+;;   This will be fixed someday, so don't bug me about it.
+;;
+;; * ALTHOUGH HILIT19 IS FASTER THAN FONT-LOCK-MODE...
+;;   For various reasons, the speed of the package could still stand to be
+;;   improved.  If you care to do a little profiling and make things tighter...
+;;
+;; * hilit-toggle-highlight is flaky when auto-rehighlight is neither t nor nil.
+;;   Does anyone actually USE this?  I think I might just remove it.
+;;
+;; PROJECTS THAT YOU CAN TAKE OVER BECAUSE I DON'T MUCH CARE ABOUT THEM...
+;;
+;; * Moved hilit-wysiwyg-replace here from my version of man.el, this is not
+;;   a bug.  The bug is that I don't have a reverse operation yet...just a
+;;   stub Wysiwyg-anything really belongs in a package of its own.

+;; as you can see, I had two similar problems for Pascal and Icon. In

+;; thus string syntax would be extremely simple. However, if a string
+;; occurs within a comment, the following text is considered a string.
+;; 
+;; In Icon, strings are similar to C ones, but there are also charsets,
+;; delimited with simple quotes. I could not manage to use both regexps at
+;; the same time.
+
+;; The problem I have with my patterns for Icon is that this language has a
+;; string similar constant to the C one (but a string can be cut on several
+;; lines, if terminated by a dash and continued with initial blanks, like
+;; this:
+;;         "This is a somewhat long -
+;;          string, written on three -
+;;          successive lines"
+;; in order to insert a double quote in a string, you have to escape it
+;; with a \), bu also a character set constant (named a charset), which
+;; uses single quotes instead of double ones. It would seem intuitive to
+;; highlight both constants in the same way.

+;;	tower@gnu.org Nov 86
+;; changed C-c C-r key-binding due to rename of news-caesar-buffer-body

+;; restricted call of news-show-all-headers in news-post-news & news-reply
+;;	tower@gnu.org 28 Apr 87
