Syntax highlighting does not work. The only thing highlighted are strings. Not even function definitions. I've tried add-hook with (setq font-lock-maximum-decoration '((python-mode . 3))) I've started emacs with a python file and --debug-init with no messages that suggest any type of error. c-h, v font-lock-maximum-decoration gives me [no match] Any suggestions would be appreciated. Other programming modes work fine. Other python mode functions appear to work as expected. thanks -- Tim tim@ johnsons-web.com||akwebsoft.com http://www.akwebsoft.com
