162 When Just-in-time Lock mode is enabled, fontification is different in the
163 following ways:
165 - Demand-driven buffer fontification triggered by Emacs C code.
166 This means initial fontification of the whole buffer does not occur.
167 Instead, fontification occurs when necessary, such as when scrolling
168 through the buffer would otherwise reveal unfontified areas. This is
169 useful if buffer fontification is too slow for large buffers.
171 - Stealthy buffer fontification if `jit-lock-stealth-time' is non-nil.
172 This means remaining unfontified areas of buffers are fontified if Emacs has
173 been idle for `jit-lock-stealth-time' seconds, while Emacs remains idle.
174 This is useful if any buffer has any deferred fontification.
176 - Deferred context fontification if `jit-lock-defer-contextually' is
177 non-nil. This means fontification updates the buffer corresponding to
178 true syntactic context, after `jit-lock-stealth-time' seconds of Emacs
179 idle time, while Emacs remains idle. Otherwise, fontification occurs
180 on modified lines only, and subsequent lines can remain fontified
181 corresponding to previous syntactic contexts. This is useful where
182 strings or comments span lines.
184 Stealth fontification only occurs while the system remains unloaded.
185 If the system load rises above `jit-lock-stealth-load' percent, stealth
186 fontification is suspended. Stealth fontification intensity is controlled via
187 the variable `jit-lock-stealth-nice'."
