I tried some of the methods described by the OP, and they work *after* the file is visited, but starting with emacs -Q and evaluating this on *scratch*: (defun foo () (message "hook") (global-font-lock-mode nil)) (add-hook 'c++-mode-hook 'foo) then visiting a C++ file, the text is colorized. At that point, M-x global-font-lock-mode and the colors go away, but M-x revert-buffer colorizes the text again. > IOW, I recommend you M-x report-emacs-bug RET Yes, it is a glaring bug.
