When I make a new buffe= r and apply `text-mode` or `org-mode`, `font-lock` in enabled and can print= text with colour using `font-lock-face`. But when I do not set the mode of the buffer, I get `fundamental-mode` auto= matically. What should I use to print in a new buffer?=20 Cannot really understand what `font-lock` is about. Does it have to be ena= bled to print in colour?
