Subject: Re: Finding faces to customize

Message-ID: <E1DnL7d-0004z5-Cb@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87mzpbnsu8.fsf@jurta.org> (message from Juri Linkov on Tue, 28 Jun 2005 03:00:33 +0300)

    1. The `face' property on a character under the point takes precedence
       over the face name extracted from the buffer.  So if the point is
       located on the face name in the `defface' specification, then the
       default will be `font-lock-variable-name-face' instead of the face
       from `defface', because the face name is fontified in that font-lock
       face.

This is funny.  Did anyone ever play the trick on you where
he holds up a card that says "red", but it's in green letters,
and asks you to read the word (or, to say which color you see)?
Humans get confused trying to answer.

It is funny that Emacs gets confused in the same way.
