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

343 (defvar font-lock-keywords nil
344 "A list of the keywords to highlight.
345 There are two kinds of values: user-level, and compiled.
347 A user-level keywords list is what a major mode or the user would
348 set up. Normally the list would come from `font-lock-defaults'.
349 through selection of a fontification level and evaluation of any
350 contained expressions. You can also alter it by calling
351 `font-lock-add-keywords' or `font-lock-remove-keywords' with MODE = nil.
353 Each element in a user-level keywords list should have one of these forms:
355 MATCHER
356 (MATCHER . SUBEXP)
357 (MATCHER . FACENAME)
358 (MATCHER . HIGHLIGHT)
359 (MATCHER HIGHLIGHT ...)
360 (eval . FORM)
362 where MATCHER can be either the regexp to search for, or the function name to
363 call to make the search (called with one argument, the limit of the search;
364 it should return non-nil, move point, and set `match-data' appropriately if
365 it succeeds; like `re-search-forward' would).
366 MATCHER regexps can be generated via the function `regexp-opt'.
368 FORM is an expression, whose value should be a keyword element, evaluated when
369 the keyword is (first) used in a buffer. This feature can be used to provide a
370 keyword that can only be generated when Font Lock mode is actually turned on.
372 HIGHLIGHT should be either MATCH-HIGHLIGHT or MATCH-ANCHORED.
374 For highlighting single items, for example each instance of the word \"foo\",
375 typically only MATCH-HIGHLIGHT is required.
376 However, if an item or (typically) items are to be highlighted following the
377 instance of another item (the anchor), for example each instance of the
378 word \"bar\" following the word \"anchor\" then MATCH-ANCHORED may be required.
380 MATCH-HIGHLIGHT should be of the form:
382 (SUBEXP FACENAME [OVERRIDE [LAXMATCH]])
384 SUBEXP is the number of the subexpression of MATCHER to be highlighted.
386 FACENAME is an expression whose value is the face name to use.
387 Instead of a face, FACENAME can evaluate to a property list
388 of the form (face FACE PROP1 VAL1 PROP2 VAL2 ...)
389 in which case all the listed text-properties will be set rather than
390 just FACE. In such a case, you will most likely want to put those
391 properties in `font-lock-extra-managed-props' or to override
392 `font-lock-unfontify-region-function'.
394 OVERRIDE and LAXMATCH are flags. If OVERRIDE is t, existing fontification can
395 be overwritten. If `keep', only parts not already fontified are highlighted.
396 If `prepend' or `append', existing fontification is merged with the new, in
397 which the new or existing fontification, respectively, takes precedence.
398 If LAXMATCH is non-nil, that means don't signal an error if there is
399 no match for SUBEXP in MATCHER.
401 For example, an element of the form highlights (if not already highlighted):
403 \"\\\\\\=<foo\\\\\\=>\" discrete occurrences of \"foo\" in the value of the
404 variable `font-lock-keyword-face'.
405 (\"fu\\\\(bar\\\\)\" . 1) substring \"bar\" within all occurrences of \"fubar\" in
406 the value of `font-lock-keyword-face'.
407 (\"fubar\" . fubar-face) Occurrences of \"fubar\" in the value of `fubar-face'.
408 (\"foo\\\\|bar\" 0 foo-bar-face t)
409 occurrences of either \"foo\" or \"bar\" in the value
410 of `foo-bar-face', even if already highlighted.
411 (fubar-match 1 fubar-face)
412 the first subexpression within all occurrences of
413 whatever the function `fubar-match' finds and matches
414 in the value of `fubar-face'.
416 MATCH-ANCHORED should be of the form:
418 (MATCHER PRE-MATCH-FORM POST-MATCH-FORM MATCH-HIGHLIGHT ...)
420 where MATCHER is a regexp to search for or the function name to call to make
421 the search, as for MATCH-HIGHLIGHT above, but with one exception; see below.
422 PRE-MATCH-FORM and POST-MATCH-FORM are evaluated before the first, and after
423 the last, instance MATCH-ANCHORED's MATCHER is used. Therefore they can be
424 used to initialize before, and cleanup after, MATCHER is used. Typically,
425 PRE-MATCH-FORM is used to move to some position relative to the original
426 MATCHER, before starting with MATCH-ANCHORED's MATCHER. POST-MATCH-FORM might
427 be used to move back, before resuming with MATCH-ANCHORED's parent's MATCHER.
429 For example, an element of the form highlights (if not already highlighted):
431 (\"\\\\\\=<anchor\\\\\\=>\" (0 anchor-face) (\"\\\\\\=<item\\\\\\=>\" nil nil (0 item-face)))
433 discrete occurrences of \"anchor\" in the value of `anchor-face', and subsequent
434 discrete occurrences of \"item\" (on the same line) in the value of `item-face'.
435 (Here PRE-MATCH-FORM and POST-MATCH-FORM are nil. Therefore \"item\" is
436 initially searched for starting from the end of the match of \"anchor\", and
437 searching for subsequent instances of \"anchor\" resumes from where searching
438 for \"item\" concluded.)
440 The above-mentioned exception is as follows. The limit of the MATCHER search
441 defaults to the end of the line after PRE-MATCH-FORM is evaluated.
442 However, if PRE-MATCH-FORM returns a position greater than the position after
443 PRE-MATCH-FORM is evaluated, that position is used as the limit of the search.
444 It is generally a bad idea to return a position greater than the end of the
445 line, i.e., cause the MATCHER search to span lines.
447 These regular expressions can match text which spans lines, although
448 it is better to avoid it if possible since updating them while editing
449 text is slower, and it is not guaranteed to be always correct when using
450 support modes like jit-lock or lazy-lock.
452 This variable is set by major modes via the variable `font-lock-defaults'.
453 Be careful when composing regexps for this list; a poorly written pattern can
454 dramatically slow things down!
456 A compiled keywords list starts with t. It is produced internal
457 by `font-lock-compile-keywords' from a user-level keywords list.
458 Its second element is the user-level keywords list that was

534 follow whatever the syntax table says about the hash character.
536 (\"\\\\('\\\\).\\\\('\\\\)\"
537 (1 \"\\\"\")

965 ;; value of the variable, e.g., `font-lock-fontify-region-function'. Normally,
966 ;; the value of this variable is, e.g., `font-lock-default-fontify-region'
967 ;; which does contain the code to fontify a region. However, the value of the
968 ;; variable could be anything and thus, e.g., `font-lock-fontify-region' could
969 ;; do anything. The indirection of the fontification functions gives major
970 ;; modes the capability of modifying the way font-lock.el fontifies. Major
971 ;; modes can modify the values of, e.g., `font-lock-fontify-region-function',
972 ;; via the variable `font-lock-defaults'.
974 ;; For example, Rmail mode sets the variable `font-lock-defaults' so that
975 ;; font-lock.el uses its own function for buffer fontification. This function
976 ;; makes fontification be on a message-by-message basis and so visiting an
977 ;; RMAIL file is much faster. A clever implementation of the function might
978 ;; fontify the headers differently than the message body. (It should, and
979 ;; correspondingly for Mail mode, but I can't be bothered to do the work. Can
980 ;; you?) This hints at a more interesting use...
982 ;; Languages that contain text normally contained in different major modes
983 ;; could define their own fontification functions that treat text differently
984 ;; depending on its context. For example, Perl mode could arrange that here
985 ;; docs are fontified differently than Perl code. Or Yacc mode could fontify
986 ;; rules one way and C code another. Neat!
988 ;; A further reason to use the fontification indirection feature is when the
989 ;; default syntactual fontification, or the default fontification in general,
990 ;; is not flexible enough for a particular major mode. For example, perhaps
991 ;; comments are just too hairy for `font-lock-fontify-syntactically-region' to
992 ;; cope with. You need to write your own version of that function, e.g.,
993 ;; `hairy-fontify-syntactically-region', and make your own version of
994 ;; `hairy-fontify-region' call that function before calling
995 ;; `font-lock-fontify-keywords-region' for the normal regexp fontification
996 ;; pass. And Hairy mode would set `font-lock-defaults' so that font-lock.el
997 ;; would call your region fontification function instead of its own. For
998 ;; example, TeX modes could fontify {\foo ...} and \bar{...} etc. multi-line
999 ;; directives correctly and cleanly. (It is the same problem as fontifying
1000 ;; multi-line strings and comments; regexps are not appropriate for the job.)
