So for its correct behavior, it is mandatory to do the font locking. The only exception to that would be if the user would have specified that it is ok to work with unfontified text.
You are right. I will change it back. One way to do that is to set jit-lock-defer-time. Are you suggesting this as a change in the defaults? I'm not interested in this as a workaround for me alone; I want to make it faster for everyone. I found a way to change line-move-1 not to use vertical-motion in simple cases. I think it should work, but I don't understand the reason why the code uses vertical-motion. Can anyone add a comment to explain why? _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
