Do I understand this right? You say set-face-background and similar functions change the face definition, whereas copy-face only changes the frame local definitions? I always thought that something like set-face-background changes part of a face and copy face changes the whole thing. I've now changed my code to using customize. But as they say: inquiring minds want to know :-) Thanks Klaus -- ------------------------------------------ | Klaus Zeitler Lucent Technologies | ------------------------------------------ --- A city is a large community where people are lonesome together -- Herbert Prochnow
