27 ;;; Commentary:
29 ;; Font Lock mode is a minor mode that causes your comments to be displayed in
30 ;; one face, strings in another, reserved words in another, and so on.
31 ;;
32 ;; Comments will be displayed in `font-lock-comment-face'.
33 ;; Strings will be displayed in `font-lock-string-face'.
34 ;; Regexps are used to display selected patterns in other faces.
35 ;;
36 ;; To make the text you type be fontified, use M-x font-lock-mode RET.
37 ;; When this minor mode is on, the faces of the current line are updated with
38 ;; every insertion or deletion.
39 ;;
40 ;; To turn Font Lock mode on automatically, add this to your ~/.emacs file:
41 ;;
42 ;; (add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)
43 ;;
44 ;; Or if you want to turn Font Lock mode on in many modes:
45 ;;
46 ;; (global-font-lock-mode t)
47 ;;
48 ;; Fontification for a particular mode may be available in a number of levels
49 ;; of decoration. The higher the level, the more decoration, but the more time
50 ;; it takes to fontify. See the variable `font-lock-maximum-decoration', and
51 ;; also the variable `font-lock-maximum-size'. Support modes for Font Lock
52 ;; mode can be used to speed up Font Lock mode. See `font-lock-support-mode'.
53 \f
54 ;;; How Font Lock mode fontifies:
56 ;; When Font Lock mode is turned on in a buffer, it (a) fontifies the entire
57 ;; buffer and (b) installs one of its fontification functions on one of the
58 ;; hook variables that are run by Emacs after every buffer change (i.e., an
59 ;; insertion or deletion). Fontification means the replacement of `face' text
60 ;; properties in a given region; Emacs displays text with these `face' text
61 ;; properties appropriately.
62 ;;
63 ;; Fontification normally involves syntactic (i.e., strings and comments) and
64 ;; regexp (i.e., keywords and everything else) passes. There are actually
65 ;; three passes; (a) the syntactic keyword pass, (b) the syntactic pass and (c)
66 ;; the keyword pass. Confused?
67 ;;
68 ;; The syntactic keyword pass places `syntax-table' text properties in the
69 ;; buffer according to the variable `font-lock-syntactic-keywords'. It is
70 ;; necessary because Emacs' syntax table is not powerful enough to describe all
71 ;; the different syntactic constructs required by the sort of people who decide
72 ;; that a single quote can be syntactic or not depending on the time of day.
73 ;; (What sort of person could decide to overload the meaning of a quote?)
74 ;; Obviously the syntactic keyword pass must occur before the syntactic pass.
75 ;;
76 ;; The syntactic pass places `face' text properties in the buffer according to
77 ;; syntactic context, i.e., according to the buffer's syntax table and buffer
78 ;; text's `syntax-table' text properties. It involves using a syntax parsing
79 ;; function to determine the context of different parts of a region of text. A
80 ;; syntax parsing function is necessary because generally strings and/or
81 ;; comments can span lines, and so the context of a given region is not
82 ;; necessarily apparent from the content of that region. Because the keyword
83 ;; pass only works within a given region, it is not generally appropriate for
84 ;; syntactic fontification. This is the first fontification pass that makes
85 ;; changes visible to the user; it fontifies strings and comments.
86 ;;
87 ;; The keyword pass places `face' text properties in the buffer according to
88 ;; the variable `font-lock-keywords'. It involves searching for given regexps
89 ;; (or calling given search functions) within the given region. This is the
90 ;; second fontification pass that makes changes visible to the user; it
91 ;; fontifies language reserved words, etc.
92 ;;
93 ;; Oh, and the answer is, "Yes, obviously just about everything should be done
94 ;; in a single syntactic pass, but the only syntactic parser available
95 ;; understands only strings and comments." Perhaps one day someone will write
96 ;; some syntactic parsers for common languages and a son-of-font-lock.el could
97 ;; use them rather then relying so heavily on the keyword (regexp) pass.
99 ;;; How Font Lock mode supports modes or is supported by modes:
101 ;; Modes that support Font Lock mode do so by defining one or more variables
102 ;; whose values specify the fontification. Font Lock mode knows of these
103 ;; variable names from (a) the buffer local variable `font-lock-defaults', if
104 ;; non-nil, or (b) the global variable `font-lock-defaults-alist', if the major
105 ;; mode has an entry. (Font Lock mode is set up via (a) where a mode's
106 ;; patterns are distributed with the mode's package library, and (b) where a
107 ;; mode's patterns are distributed with font-lock.el itself. An example of (a)
108 ;; is Pascal mode, an example of (b) is Lisp mode. Normally, the mechanism is
109 ;; (a); (b) is used where it is not clear which package library should contain
110 ;; the pattern definitions.) Font Lock mode chooses which variable to use for
111 ;; fontification based on `font-lock-maximum-decoration'.
112 ;;
113 ;; Font Lock mode fontification behaviour can be modified in a number of ways.
114 ;; See the below comments and the comments distributed throughout this file.
116 ;;; Constructing patterns:
118 ;; See the documentation for the variable `font-lock-keywords'.
119 ;;
120 ;; Efficient regexps for use as MATCHERs for `font-lock-keywords' and
121 ;; `font-lock-syntactic-keywords' can be generated via the function
122 ;; `regexp-opt'.
124 ;;; Adding patterns for modes that already support Font Lock:
126 ;; Though Font Lock highlighting patterns already exist for many modes, it's
127 ;; likely there's something that you want fontified that currently isn't, even
128 ;; at the maximum fontification level. You can add highlighting patterns via
129 ;; `font-lock-add-keywords'. For example, say in some C
130 ;; header file you #define the token `and' to expand to `&&', etc., to make
131 ;; your C code almost readable. In your ~/.emacs there could be:
132 ;;
133 ;; (font-lock-add-keywords 'c-mode '("\\<\\(and\\|or\\|not\\)\\>"))
134 ;;
135 ;; Some modes provide specific ways to modify patterns based on the values of
136 ;; other variables. For example, additional C types can be specified via the
137 ;; variable `c-font-lock-extra-types'.
139 ;;; Adding patterns for modes that do not support Font Lock:
141 ;; Not all modes support Font Lock mode. If you (as a user of the mode) add
142 ;; patterns for a new mode, you must define in your ~/.emacs a variable or
143 ;; variables that specify regexp fontification. Then, you should indicate to
144 ;; Font Lock mode, via the mode hook setting `font-lock-defaults', exactly what
145 ;; support is required. For example, say Foo mode should have the following
146 ;; regexps fontified case-sensitively, and comments and strings should not be
147 ;; fontified automagically. In your ~/.emacs there could be:
148 ;;
149 ;; (defvar foo-font-lock-keywords
150 ;; '(("\\<\\(one\\|two\\|three\\)\\>" . font-lock-keyword-face)
151 ;; ("\\<\\(four\\|five\\|six\\)\\>" . font-lock-type-face))
152 ;; "Default expressions to highlight in Foo mode.")
153 ;;
154 ;; (add-hook 'foo-mode-hook
155 ;; (function (lambda ()
156 ;; (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults)
157 ;; (setq font-lock-defaults '(foo-font-lock-keywords t)))))
159 ;;; Adding Font Lock support for modes:
161 ;; Of course, it would be better that the mode already supports Font Lock mode.
162 ;; The package author would do something similar to above. The mode must
163 ;; define at the top-level a variable or variables that specify regexp
164 ;; fontification. Then, the mode command should indicate to Font Lock mode,
165 ;; via `font-lock-defaults', exactly what support is required. For example,
166 ;; say Bar mode should have the following regexps fontified case-insensitively,
167 ;; and comments and strings should be fontified automagically. In bar.el there
168 ;; could be:
169 ;;
170 ;; (defvar bar-font-lock-keywords
171 ;; '(("\\<\\(uno\\|due\\|tre\\)\\>" . font-lock-keyword-face)
172 ;; ("\\<\\(quattro\\|cinque\\|sei\\)\\>" . font-lock-type-face))
173 ;; "Default expressions to highlight in Bar mode.")
174 ;;
175 ;; and within `bar-mode' there could be:
176 ;;
177 ;; (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults)
178 ;; (setq font-lock-defaults '(bar-font-lock-keywords nil t))
179 \f
180 ;; What is fontification for? You might say, "It's to make my code look nice."
181 ;; I think it should be for adding information in the form of cues. These cues
182 ;; should provide you with enough information to both (a) distinguish between
183 ;; different items, and (b) identify the item meanings, without having to read
184 ;; the items and think about it. Therefore, fontification allows you to think
185 ;; less about, say, the structure of code, and more about, say, why the code
186 ;; doesn't work. Or maybe it allows you to think less and drift off to sleep.
187 ;;
188 ;; So, here are my opinions/advice/guidelines:
189 ;;
190 ;; - Highlight conceptual objects, such as function and variable names, and
191 ;; different objects types differently, i.e., (a) and (b) above, highlight
192 ;; function names differently to variable names.
193 ;; - Keep the faces distinct from each other as far as possible.
194 ;; i.e., (a) above.
195 ;; - Use the same face for the same conceptual object, across all modes.
196 ;; i.e., (b) above, all modes that have items that can be thought of as, say,
197 ;; keywords, should be highlighted with the same face, etc.
198 ;; - Make the face attributes fit the concept as far as possible.
199 ;; i.e., function names might be a bold colour such as blue, comments might
200 ;; be a bright colour such as red, character strings might be brown, because,
201 ;; err, strings are brown (that was not the reason, please believe me).
202 ;; - Don't use a non-nil OVERRIDE unless you have a good reason.
203 ;; Only use OVERRIDE for special things that are easy to define, such as the
204 ;; way `...' quotes are treated in strings and comments in Emacs Lisp mode.
205 ;; Don't use it to, say, highlight keywords in commented out code or strings.
206 ;; - Err, that's it.
207 \f
208 ;;; Code:
210 ;; Define core `font-lock' group.
212 "Font Lock mode text highlighting package."
218 "Faces for highlighting text."
223 "Extra mode-specific type names for highlighting declarations."
226 ;; Define support mode groups here to impose `font-lock' group order.

250 Only buffers less than this can be fontified when Font Lock mode is turned on.
251 If nil, means size is irrelevant.
252 If a list, each element should be a cons pair of the form (MAJOR-MODE . SIZE),
253 where MAJOR-MODE is a symbol or t (meaning the default). For example:
254 ((c-mode . 256000) (c++-mode . 256000) (rmail-mode . 1048576))
255 means that the maximum size is 250K for buffers in C or C++ modes, one megabyte
256 for buffers in Rmail mode, and size is irrelevant otherwise."
271 "*Maximum decoration level for fontification.
272 If nil, use the default decoration (typically the minimum available).
273 If t, use the maximum decoration available.
274 If a number, use that level of decoration (or if not available the maximum).
275 If a list, each element should be a cons pair of the form (MAJOR-MODE . LEVEL),
276 where MAJOR-MODE is a symbol or t (meaning the default). For example:
277 ((c-mode . t) (c++-mode . 2) (t . 1))
278 means use the maximum decoration available for buffers in C mode, level 2
279 decoration for buffers in C++ mode, and level 1 decoration otherwise."
296 "*If non-nil, means show status messages for buffer fontification.
297 If a number, only buffers greater than this size have fontification messages."
302 \f
303 ;; Fontification variables:
306 "A list of the keywords to highlight.
307 Each element should have one of these forms:
309 MATCHER
310 (MATCHER . MATCH)
311 (MATCHER . FACENAME)
312 (MATCHER . HIGHLIGHT)
313 (MATCHER HIGHLIGHT ...)
314 (eval . FORM)
316 where HIGHLIGHT should be either MATCH-HIGHLIGHT or MATCH-ANCHORED.
318 FORM is an expression, whose value should be a keyword element, evaluated when
319 the keyword is (first) used in a buffer. This feature can be used to provide a
320 keyword that can only be generated when Font Lock mode is actually turned on.
323 typically only MATCH-HIGHLIGHT is required.
324 However, if an item or (typically) items are to be highlighted following the
325 instance of another item (the anchor), for example each instance of the
328 MATCH-HIGHLIGHT should be of the form:
330 (MATCH FACENAME OVERRIDE LAXMATCH)
332 where MATCHER can be either the regexp to search for, or the function name to
333 call to make the search (called with one argument, the limit of the search) and
334 return non-nil if it succeeds (and set `match-data' appropriately).
335 MATCHER regexps can be generated via the function `regexp-opt'. MATCH is
336 the subexpression of MATCHER to be highlighted. FACENAME is an expression
337 whose value is the face name to use. Face default attributes can be
340 OVERRIDE and LAXMATCH are flags. If OVERRIDE is t, existing fontification can
341 be overwritten. If `keep', only parts not already fontified are highlighted.
342 If `prepend' or `append', existing fontification is merged with the new, in
343 which the new or existing fontification, respectively, takes precedence.
344 If LAXMATCH is non-nil, no error is signaled if there is no MATCH in MATCHER.
346 For example, an element of the form highlights (if not already highlighted):
349 variable `font-lock-keyword-face'.
351 the value of `font-lock-keyword-face'.
355 of `foo-bar-face', even if already highlighted.
356 (fubar-match 1 fubar-face)
357 the first subexpression within all occurrences of
358 whatever the function `fubar-match' finds and matches
359 in the value of `fubar-face'.
361 MATCH-ANCHORED should be of the form:
363 (MATCHER PRE-MATCH-FORM POST-MATCH-FORM MATCH-HIGHLIGHT ...)
365 where MATCHER is a regexp to search for or the function name to call to make
366 the search, as for MATCH-HIGHLIGHT above, but with one exception; see below.
367 PRE-MATCH-FORM and POST-MATCH-FORM are evaluated before the first, and after
368 the last, instance MATCH-ANCHORED's MATCHER is used. Therefore they can be
369 used to initialise before, and cleanup after, MATCHER is used. Typically,
370 PRE-MATCH-FORM is used to move to some position relative to the original
371 MATCHER, before starting with MATCH-ANCHORED's MATCHER. POST-MATCH-FORM might
372 be used to move, before resuming with MATCH-ANCHORED's parent's MATCHER.
374 For example, an element of the form highlights (if not already highlighted):
385 The above-mentioned exception is as follows. The limit of the MATCHER search
386 defaults to the end of the line after PRE-MATCH-FORM is evaluated.
387 However, if PRE-MATCH-FORM returns a position greater than the position after
388 PRE-MATCH-FORM is evaluated, that position is used as the limit of the search.
389 It is generally a bad idea to return a position greater than the end of the
390 line, i.e., cause the MATCHER search to span lines.
392 These regular expressions can match text which spans lines, although
393 it is better to avoid it if possible since updating them while editing
394 text is slower, and it is not guaranteed to be always correct when using
395 support modes like jit-lock or lazy-lock.
397 This variable is set by major modes via the variable `font-lock-defaults'.
398 Be careful when composing regexps for this list; a poorly written pattern can
401 ;; This variable is used by mode packages that support Font Lock mode by
402 ;; defining their own keywords to use for `font-lock-keywords'. (The mode
403 ;; command should make it buffer-local and set it to provide the set up.)
405 "Defaults for Font Lock mode specified by the major mode.
406 Defaults should be of the form:
408 (KEYWORDS KEYWORDS-ONLY CASE-FOLD SYNTAX-ALIST SYNTAX-BEGIN ...)
410 KEYWORDS may be a symbol (a variable or function whose value is the keywords to
411 use for fontification) or a list of symbols. If KEYWORDS-ONLY is non-nil,
412 syntactic fontification (strings and comments) is not performed.
413 If CASE-FOLD is non-nil, the case of the keywords is ignored when fontifying.
414 If SYNTAX-ALIST is non-nil, it should be a list of cons pairs of the form
415 \(CHAR-OR-STRING . STRING) used to set the local Font Lock syntax table, for
416 keyword and syntactic fontification (see `modify-syntax-entry').
418 If SYNTAX-BEGIN is non-nil, it should be a function with no args used to move
419 backwards outside any enclosing syntactic block, for syntactic fontification.
420 Typical values are `beginning-of-line' (i.e., the start of the line is known to
421 be outside a syntactic block), or `beginning-of-defun' for programming modes or
422 `backward-paragraph' for textual modes (i.e., the mode-dependent function is
423 known to move outside a syntactic block). If nil, the beginning of the buffer
424 is used as a position outside of a syntactic block, in the worst case.
426 These item elements are used by Font Lock mode to set the variables
427 `font-lock-keywords', `font-lock-keywords-only',
428 `font-lock-keywords-case-fold-search', `font-lock-syntax-table' and
429 `font-lock-beginning-of-syntax-function', respectively.
431 Further item elements are alists of the form (VARIABLE . VALUE) and are in no
432 particular order. Each VARIABLE is made buffer-local before set to VALUE.
434 Currently, appropriate variables include `font-lock-mark-block-function'.
435 If this is non-nil, it should be a function with no args used to mark any
437 Typical values are `mark-defun' for programming modes or `mark-paragraph' for
438 textual modes (i.e., the mode-dependent function is known to put point and mark
439 around a text block relevant to that mode).
441 Other variables include that for syntactic keyword fontification,
442 `font-lock-syntactic-keywords'
443 and those for buffer-specialised fontification functions,
444 `font-lock-fontify-buffer-function', `font-lock-unfontify-buffer-function',
445 `font-lock-fontify-region-function', `font-lock-unfontify-region-function',

673 There are a number of support modes that may be used to speed up Font Lock mode
674 in various ways, specified via the variable `font-lock-support-mode'. Where
675 major modes support different levels of fontification, you can use the variable
676 `font-lock-maximum-decoration' to specify which level you generally prefer.
677 When you turn Font Lock mode on/off the buffer is fontified/defontified, though
678 fontification occurs only if the buffer is less than `font-lock-maximum-size'.
680 For example, to specify that Font Lock mode use use Lazy Lock mode as a support
681 mode and use maximum levels of fontification, put in your ~/.emacs:
683 (setq font-lock-support-mode 'lazy-lock-mode)
684 (setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)
686 To add your own highlighting for some major mode, and modify the highlighting
687 selected automatically via the variable `font-lock-maximum-decoration', you can
688 use `font-lock-add-keywords'.

885 ;; A few people have hassled in the past for a way to make it easier to turn on
886 ;; Font Lock mode, without the user needing to know for which modes s/he has to
887 ;; turn it on, perhaps the same way hilit19.el/hl319.el does. I've always

890 ;; modes (which may not even be distributed with Emacs) support Font Lock mode.
891 ;; The list would always be out of date. And that person might have to be me.
893 ;; Implementation.
894 ;;
895 ;; In a previous discussion the following hack came to mind. It is a gross
896 ;; hack, but it generally works. We use the convention that major modes start
897 ;; by calling the function `kill-all-local-variables', which in turn runs
898 ;; functions on the hook variable `change-major-mode-hook'. We attach our
899 ;; function `font-lock-change-major-mode' to that hook. Of course, when this
900 ;; hook is run, the major mode is in the process of being changed and we do not
901 ;; know what the final major mode will be. So, `font-lock-change-major-mode'
902 ;; only (a) notes the name of the current buffer, and (b) adds our function
903 ;; `turn-on-font-lock-if-enabled' to the hook variables `find-file-hooks' and
904 ;; `post-command-hook' (for buffers that are not visiting files). By the time
905 ;; the functions on the first of these hooks to be run are run, the new major
906 ;; mode is assumed to be in place. This way we get a Font Lock function run
907 ;; when a major mode is turned on, without knowing major modes or their hooks.
908 ;;
909 ;; Naturally this requires that (a) major modes run `kill-all-local-variables',
910 ;; as they are supposed to do, and (b) the major mode is in place after the
911 ;; file is visited or the command that ran `kill-all-local-variables' has
912 ;; finished, whichever the sooner. Arguably, any major mode that does not
913 ;; follow the convension (a) is broken, and I can't think of any reason why (b)
914 ;; would not be met (except `gnudoit' on non-files). However, it is not clean.
915 ;;
916 ;; Probably the cleanest solution is to have each major mode function run some
917 ;; hook, e.g., `major-mode-hook', but maybe implementing that change is
918 ;; impractical. I am personally against making `setq' a macro or be advised,
919 ;; or have a special function such as `set-major-mode', but maybe someone can
920 ;; come up with another solution?
922 ;; User interface.
923 ;;
924 ;; Although Global Font Lock mode is a pseudo-mode, I think that the user
925 ;; interface should conform to the usual Emacs convention for modes, i.e., a
926 ;; command to toggle the feature (`global-font-lock-mode') with a variable for
927 ;; finer control of the mode's behaviour (`font-lock-global-modes').
928 ;;
929 ;; The feature should not be enabled by loading font-lock.el, since other
930 ;; mechanisms for turning on Font Lock mode, such as M-x font-lock-mode RET or
931 ;; (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock), would cause Font Lock mode to be
932 ;; turned on everywhere. That would not be intuitive or informative because

1132 ;; do anything. The indirection of the fontification functions gives major
1133 ;; modes the capability of modifying the way font-lock.el fontifies. Major
1134 ;; modes can modify the values of, e.g., `font-lock-fontify-region-function',
1135 ;; via the variable `font-lock-defaults'.
1136 ;;
1137 ;; For example, Rmail mode sets the variable `font-lock-defaults' so that
1138 ;; font-lock.el uses its own function for buffer fontification. This function
1139 ;; makes fontification be on a message-by-message basis and so visiting an
1140 ;; RMAIL file is much faster. A clever implementation of the function might
1141 ;; fontify the headers differently than the message body. (It should, and
1142 ;; correspondingly for Mail mode, but I can't be bothered to do the work. Can
1143 ;; you?) This hints at a more interesting use...
1144 ;;
1145 ;; Languages that contain text normally contained in different major modes
1146 ;; could define their own fontification functions that treat text differently
1147 ;; depending on its context. For example, Perl mode could arrange that here
1148 ;; docs are fontified differently than Perl code. Or Yacc mode could fontify
1149 ;; rules one way and C code another. Neat!
1150 ;;
1151 ;; A further reason to use the fontification indirection feature is when the
1152 ;; default syntactual fontification, or the default fontification in general,
1153 ;; is not flexible enough for a particular major mode. For example, perhaps
1154 ;; comments are just too hairy for `font-lock-fontify-syntactically-region' to
1155 ;; cope with. You need to write your own version of that function, e.g.,
1156 ;; `hairy-fontify-syntactically-region', and make your own version of
1157 ;; `hairy-fontify-region' call that function before calling
1158 ;; `font-lock-fontify-keywords-region' for the normal regexp fontification
1159 ;; pass. And Hairy mode would set `font-lock-defaults' so that font-lock.el

1161 ;; example, TeX modes could fontify {\foo ...} and \bar{...} etc. multi-line
