occur mode questions

[Javier Oviedo]

Hello all:

A few Occur-mode questions:

1. Sometimes when I use occur, the *Occur* buffer show matches WITHOUT the
proper font-lock-face attributes. What would cause this to fail? Most of the
time things are displayed correctly.

2. Can occur highlight multiple instances of the expression per line?
Currently It highlights the first occurrence, but leaves subsequent ones
without highlight. Here is an example output. The expression is
"load-path".  In the occur-mode window, only the first instance of load-path
is
highlighted.
Example:
   :(setq load-path (cons "C:/site-lisp_21_2" load-path))

Any help? Thanks in advance.

It never "occurred" to me that occur could highlight the matches.  How
do you turn that on?

I did not do anything...it seems to be turned on by default. Look at
replace.el.
