Subject: Buffer-specific face overrides
Date: Thu, 26 Aug 2004 15:45:09 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20040826T173334-827@post.gmane.org> (raw)
Is there a way in Emacs to specify the value of a face on a buffer-local basis?
I know this is possible in XEmacs using specifiers, but these are not available
(AFAICT) in Gnu Emacs, and I haven't found an equivalent.
As an example of what I want to achieve, I'd like to set the background colour
of the *scratch* buffer to something different from the colour I use for other
buffers.
I've checked the manuals and the FAQs (including the Windows one) and searched
via Google (but it's hard to know what search terms to use) and haven't been
able to find anything.
My Emacs version is GNU Emacs 21.3.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.0.2195) running on
Windows 2000 (and also XP Pro).
It's not a big deal, but it's something I haven't been able to transfer over
from my XEmacs setup so far.
Thanks for any help,
Paul.
