That's actually what I suggested: font-lock does not only set faces. compile.el uses it to set faces (which have no other purpose than aesthetic) and to set crucial meta info. So you can't just plain turn off font-lock because it would break grep, but we could add some option to font-lock so you can have it ON without any of the visual effects. Stefan
