It is one of the fontification methods used by Font Lock mode, and is useful for special modes that implement their own highlighting. *Note Precalculated Fontification::.

By “interactively” I mean typing M-x switch-to-buffer <buffer name> RET. This gives you a new buffer in fundamental-mode. If you create a buffer this way, and type M-x eval-expression font-lock-mode RET, you should get t, meaning font-lock-mode is on.

If font-lock-mode is on, you should use (propertize … ‘font-lock-face …) If I have a function that does the inserts, should I include the two different conditions, whether "font-lock-mode" in "off" or "on" ?

You are saying to disregard "font-lock-mode" and use (propertize … ‘face …) when it is determined that "font-lock-mode" is off. Can I have a deeper explanation on how to handle this good? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 19+ messages in thread
