Hello, Font-lock mode no longer dynamically highlights text after a call to (highlight-regexp). Others have confirmed seeing the same thing, so it's likely not just my environment. I'm not sure whether this is a hi-lock bug (possibly due to it only calling font-lock-add-keywords) or a font-lock bug. Lossage after recreating the problem: C-f t m p RET a o e C-x w l o RET RET o e o The last o's aren't highlighted yellow. platform: Windows XP version: GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2004-12-23 on FARIBA --Craig Muth --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
