AFAIK, `modeline' is the facename used in XEmacs. In GNU Emacs, it is `mode-line'. >> So, I prefer some color (I chose orange) that everybody can customize, and >> that makes everybody be aware of the tags used for filtering (in this >> case).

Using `mode-line' as the default face for highlighting the tags is contrary to my intended goal: the filters simply won't be different from any information shown in the mode-line. Hence: - there is no highlighting by default, and - nobody even knows that it's customizable... I think the best choice, if you want to use an already existing face, is then to choose `mode-line-emphasis'. At least, that one is, by default, bold, so that one sees something different without any specific customization. What do you think? Best regards, Seb -- Sebastien Vauban
