Just to be sure I get your message correct. I don't see the warning in
your output. Does it mean you don't get the problem with latest 21.4?
But I do get it with latest 21.4! Could it depend on features? Mine
is mule enabled!?

Font lock problem in 21.4 but seems to be fixed in 21.5

Hi,
Looking at some old bug reports on XEmacs in Gentoo I found this
problem that is still present in 21.4.22.
The recipe is:
$ xemacs -q
> M-x font-lock-mode RET
> Paste this text below to the *scratch* buffer and evaluate it
(font-lock-add-keywords nil
'(("\\<\\(FIXME\\):" 1 font-lock-warning-face prepend)
("\\<\\(and\\|or\\|not\\)\\>" . font-lock-keyword-face)))
This results in the error message:
(1) (warning/warning) Error caught in `font-lock-pre-idle-hook':
(invalid-function 1)
This problem was in Gentoo reported also for 21.5.28. It seems though
that is has been fixed because with 21.5.34 I'm not able to reproduce.
Is this a known problem? Is it known to have been fixed for 21.5?
Would it possible to fix for 21.4 as well?
Yours

Yes, but if so you can’t use regexp-quote, because regexp-quote will ensure
this won’t work.

change a list of abbrev at once, regexp etc TeX-to-char-region like
10 years, 3 months

Hello
Here is the scenario.
I have a very old LaTeX which is full of definitions like:
\def\be{\begin{equation}}
\def\ee{\end{equation}}
\def\bqa{\begin{eqnarray}}
\def\eqa{\end{eqnarray}}
Etc. I want to replace the old definitions by the original LaTeX
commands (for many reasons)
Now I have some old code[1] which allows me to define a list and then all
in once.
The table structure is
(defvar old2new-trans-tab
'(
("\\al" "\\alpha")
("\\a" "\\\[0.2cm]")))
The relevant function which is doing the replacement is.
(defun ltxoldnew-translate-conventions (trans-tab)
"Use the translation table argument to translate the current buffer."
(save-excursion
(let ((beg (point-min-marker)) ; see the `(elisp)Narrowing' Info node
(end (point-max-marker)))
(unwind-protect
(progn
(widen)
(goto-char (point-min))
(let ((buffer-read-only nil) ; (inhibit-read-only t)?
(case-fold-search nil))
(while trans-tab
(save-excursion
(let ((trans-this (car trans-tab)))
(while (search-forward (car trans-this) nil t)
(replace-match (car (cdr trans-this)) t t)))
(setq trans-tab (cdr trans-tab))))))
(narrow-to-region beg end)))))
The problem is that there at least two constructs which have a similar
starting but different ending, \a an \al.
So I thought I replace
(while (search-forward (car trans-this) nil t)
by
(while (search-forward-regexp (car trans-this) nil t)
And the table
(defvar old2new-trans-tab
'(
("\b\al\b" "\\alpha")
("\b\a\b" "\\\[0.2cm]")))
But it does not work. Does anybody know how to add some
regexp-functionality like word boundaries in the code?
thanks
uwe Brauer
