Subject: font-lock-maximum-size

Message-ID: <8762joynza.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)
font-lock-maximum-size is a variable defined in `font-lock.el'.
Its value is 256000
Documentation:
Maximum size of a buffer for buffer fontification.
Only buffers less than this can be fontified when Font Lock mode is
turned on.
Looks like this variable doesn't work, and hasn't worked for a long
time. It nothing when JIT lock mode is in use, and since fast-lock and
lazy-lock are obsolete, it's pretty useless. (Anyway, source files
larger than 250K are not uncommon.)
If there are no objections, I am going to mark it as deprecated, and
remove it from the manual.
