font-lock-auto-fontify?

This variable is set to t indicating to me that buffers should be syntax highlighted by default. However, because font-lock is not loaded by default this has no effect. I personally believe font-lock should be loaded by default so that this variable does have an effect. andy --------------------------------------------------------------------------- " .sigs are like your face - rarely seen by you and uglier than you think" Dr Andy Piper, Technical Architect, Parallax Solutions Ltd mail: andyp(a)parallax.co.uk web: www.parallax.co.uk/~andyp
