Re: font-lock: FSF vs XEmacs

Hi Jake, this works for me: (add-hook 'font-lock-mode-hook '(lambda () (cond ((eq major-mode 'python-mode) (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-keywords) python-font-lock-keywords)) ((eq major-mode 'c++-mode) (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-keywords) (append c++-font-lock-keywords '(("\\<\\(foreach\\)\\>" (1 font-lock-keyword-face t))))))))) I guess appending to c++-font-lock-keywords requires some reinitialization for it to update 'font-lock-keywords in c++-mode. I haven't spend the time to find that out, but the above seems to work just as well. Hope this helps, Adrian TC> Where you by chance getting a "fontifying blah.c... aborted.aborted."
