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 +;; The list would always be out of date.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-hooks' 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.
