specialized ways of assigning fonts for Font Lock mode.
@findex font-lock-mode
Font Lock mode is turned on by default in all modes which support it.
You can toggle font-lock for each buffer with the command @kbd{M-x
font-lock-mode}. Using a positive argument unconditionally turns Font
Lock mode on, and a negative or zero argument turns it off.
@findex global-font-lock-mode
@vindex global-font-lock-mode
If you do not wish Font Lock mode to be turned on by default,
customize the variable @code{global-font-lock-mode} using the Customize
interface (@pxref{Easy Customization}), or use the function
@code{global-font-lock-mode} in your @file{.emacs} file, like this:
@example
(global-font-lock-mode 0)
@end example
@noindent
Global Font Lock mode can also be set using the menu bar Options menu,
specifying first Syntax Highlighting and then Save Options.
@findex turn-on-font-lock
The command @kbd{M-x font-lock-mode} turns Font Lock mode on with
positive argument, off with negative or zero argument, and toggles the
mode when it has no argument. The function @code{turn-on-font-lock}
unconditionally enables Font Lock mode. This is useful in mode-hook
functions. For example, to enable Font Lock mode whenever you edit a
C file, you can do this:
If you have disabled Global Font Lock mode, you can still enable font
lock for specific major modes by adding the function
@code{turn-on-font-lock} to the mode hooks (@pxref{Hooks}). For
example, to enable Font Lock mode for editing C files, you can do this:
@example
(add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)
@end example
@findex global-font-lock-mode
@vindex global-font-lock-mode
To turn on Font Lock mode automatically in all modes which support
it, customize the variable @code{global-font-lock-mode} using the
Customize interface (@pxref{Easy Customization}) or use the function
@code{global-font-lock-mode} in your @file{.emacs} file, like this:
@example
(global-font-lock-mode 1)
@end example
@noindent
You can also specify this using the menu bar Options menu, specifying
first Syntax Highlighting and then Save Options.
Font Lock mode uses several specifically named faces to do its job,
including @code{font-lock-string-face}, @code{font-lock-comment-face},
and others. The easiest way to find them all is to use
