8.2. Font-Lock Mode


Font-lock mode is discussed primarily in Chapter 9; it's designed for coloring code to make it easier to read. But the fact is that it works well in other modes too, like the Buffer List (Chapter 4), Dired (Chapter 5), and in all the markup modes described in this chapter.

To turn on font lock mode, choose Syntax Highlighting from the Options menu. If you decide you want to turn it on for every session, select Save Options from the Options menu and Emacs writes your .emacs file.

For more details on font-lock mode, see Chapter 9.
