Many commands print informative messages like
tool: this is some message
[17] I refer to line/PID/process no 17
which are then highlighted with the string face. For example, with make
the information messages such as
make[2]: Entering directory '/home/horn/Repos/el/emacs/admin/unidata'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'charscript.el'.
make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/horn/Repos/el/emacs/admin/unidata'
are shown like so whereas the actual commands make performs are printed
in the default face, e.g.,
make -C ../admin/charsets eucjp-ms.el
where the -C option is highlighted according to the first regex.
Bye,
