Because the CASE-FOLD entry is not like the KEYWORDS entry. To cite the doc string again: KEYWORDS may be a symbol (a variable or function whose value is the keywords to use for fontification) or a list of symbols. But no similar statement is made about CASE-FOLD, so you want the actual value of fvwm-keywords-ignore-case: (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults) (list 'fvwm-font-lock-keywords nil fvwm-keywords-ignore-case)) or: (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults) `(fvwm-font-lock-keywords nil ,fvwm-keywords-ignore-case)) That being said, using any non-nil object for CASE-FOLD (such as the fvwm-keywords-ignore-case symbol) should result in case-insensitive font-locking. > I now use this, which does work though, but the above solution would be > cleaner imho... > > (if fvwm-keywords-ignore-case > (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults) '(fvwm-font-lock-keywords)) > (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults) > '(fvwm-font-lock-keywords nil t))) That looks backwards. If fvwm-keywords-ignore-case is set, I'd expect you to specify CASE-FOLD as non-nil. But you are specifying CASE-FOLD as t when fvwm-keywords-ignore-case is nil. -- Kevin Rodgers
