Re: Java syntax highlighting level can't be changed

This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team, not to your local site managers!! Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have translators to read other languages for them. Please describe as succinctly as possible: - What happened. - What you thought should have happened. - Precisely what you were doing at the time. Please also include any C or lisp back-traces that you may have. ================================================================ Dear Bug Team! I've installed a new xemacs on Windows recently; for Java editing, JDE looks very nice, but it seems to interfere with syntax highlighting somehow: when I go to the Options|Syntax Highlighting menu, the Most level has a bullet and even when I select Least, the buffer is re-colored with the same colors and the bullet stays on Most. Syntax-highlighting levels for Perl (where the default Even More is also rather garish for my taste :-) ) work right - IMHO Java should work the same. More generally, should the syntax-highlighting level really be the same for all buffers I have, independent of their language? I really would prefer to have different defaults per language...
