28 ;; This variable is used by mode packages that support Font Lock mode by
29 ;; defining their own keywords to use for `font-lock-keywords'. (The mode
30 ;; command should make it buffer-local and set it to provide the set up.)
31 (defvar font-lock-defaults nil
32 "Defaults for Font Lock mode specified by the major mode.
33 Defaults should be of the form:
35 (KEYWORDS KEYWORDS-ONLY CASE-FOLD SYNTAX-ALIST SYNTAX-BEGIN ...)
37 KEYWORDS may be a symbol (a variable or function whose value is the keywords to
38 use for fontification) or a list of symbols. If KEYWORDS-ONLY is non-nil,
39 syntactic fontification (strings and comments) is not performed.
40 If CASE-FOLD is non-nil, the case of the keywords is ignored when fontifying.
41 If SYNTAX-ALIST is non-nil, it should be a list of cons pairs of the form
42 \(CHAR-OR-STRING . STRING) used to set the local Font Lock syntax table, for
43 keyword and syntactic fontification (see `modify-syntax-entry').
45 If SYNTAX-BEGIN is non-nil, it should be a function with no args used to move
46 backwards outside any enclosing syntactic block, for syntactic fontification.
47 Typical values are `beginning-of-line' (i.e., the start of the line is known to
48 be outside a syntactic block), or `beginning-of-defun' for programming modes or
49 `backward-paragraph' for textual modes (i.e., the mode-dependent function is
50 known to move outside a syntactic block). If nil, the beginning of the buffer
51 is used as a position outside of a syntactic block, in the worst case.
53 These item elements are used by Font Lock mode to set the variables
54 `font-lock-keywords', `font-lock-keywords-only',
55 `font-lock-keywords-case-fold-search', `font-lock-syntax-table' and
56 `font-lock-beginning-of-syntax-function', respectively.
58 Further item elements are alists of the form (VARIABLE . VALUE) and are in no
59 particular order. Each VARIABLE is made buffer-local before set to VALUE.
61 Currently, appropriate variables include `font-lock-mark-block-function'.
62 If this is non-nil, it should be a function with no args used to mark any
63 enclosing block of text, for fontification via \\[font-lock-fontify-block].
64 Typical values are `mark-defun' for programming modes or `mark-paragraph' for
65 textual modes (i.e., the mode-dependent function is known to put point and mark
66 around a text block relevant to that mode).
68 Other variables include that for syntactic keyword fontification,
69 `font-lock-syntactic-keywords'
70 and those for buffer-specialised fontification functions,
71 `font-lock-fontify-buffer-function', `font-lock-unfontify-buffer-function',
72 `font-lock-fontify-region-function', `font-lock-unfontify-region-function',
73 `font-lock-inhibit-thing-lock' and `font-lock-maximum-size'.")

166 Lock on.
167 \(Font Lock is also known as \"syntax highlighting\".)
169 When Font Lock mode is enabled, text is fontified as you type it:
171 - Comments are displayed in `font-lock-comment-face';
172 - Strings are displayed in `font-lock-string-face';
173 - Certain other expressions are displayed in other faces according to the
174 value of the variable `font-lock-keywords'.
176 To customize the faces (colors, fonts, etc.) used by Font Lock for
177 fontifying different parts of buffer text, use \\[customize-face].
179 You can enable Font Lock mode in any major mode automatically by turning on in
180 the major mode's hook. For example, put in your ~/.emacs:
182 (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)
184 Alternatively, you can use Global Font Lock mode to automagically turn on Font
185 Lock mode in buffers whose major mode supports it and whose major mode is one
186 of `font-lock-global-modes'. For example, put in your ~/.emacs:
188 (global-font-lock-mode t)
190 There are a number of support modes that may be used to speed up Font Lock mode
191 in various ways, specified via the variable `font-lock-support-mode'. Where
192 major modes support different levels of fontification, you can use the variable
193 `font-lock-maximum-decoration' to specify which level you generally prefer.
194 When you turn Font Lock mode on/off the buffer is fontified/defontified, though
195 fontification occurs only if the buffer is less than `font-lock-maximum-size'.
197 For example, to specify that Font Lock mode use use Lazy Lock mode as a support
198 mode and use maximum levels of fontification, put in your ~/.emacs:
200 (setq font-lock-support-mode 'lazy-lock-mode)
201 (setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)
203 To add your own highlighting for some major mode, and modify the highlighting
204 selected automatically via the variable `font-lock-maximum-decoration', you can
205 use `font-lock-add-keywords'.
207 To fontify a buffer, without turning on Font Lock mode and regardless of buffer
208 size, you can use \\[font-lock-fontify-buffer].
210 To fontify a block (the function or paragraph containing point, or a number of
211 lines around point), perhaps because modification on the current line caused
212 syntactic change on other lines, you can use \\[font-lock-fontify-block].
214 See the variable `font-lock-defaults-alist' for the Font Lock mode default
215 settings. You can set your own default settings for some mode, by setting a
216 buffer local value for `font-lock-defaults', via its mode hook.
218 The above is the default behavior of `font-lock-mode'; you may specify
219 your own function which is called when `font-lock-mode' is toggled via
220 `font-lock-function'. "

279 ;; A few people have hassled in the past for a way to make it easier to turn on

281 ;; turn it on, perhaps the same way hilit19.el/hl319.el does. I've always

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