I am trying to write my first major mode, where I'd like to use
font-lock-mode to colorize some words. I browsed some code, and saw that
people are using regexp-opt for this, so I went with this approach,
too. Therefore, I have:

(defconst inducks-keywords (regexp-opt '(...) t) "inducks fields to colorize")

(regexp-opt '(...) 'words) is even better.

And wrote the following:

(defconst inducks-font-heroes
(list (cons (concat "\\<\\(" inducks-keywords "\\)\\>")
    'inducks-keyword)))

Is this a good way to do it ? It doesn't compile.

How does the compilation fail. Which version of Emacs are you using and on what operating system? Have you `M-x h f regexp-opt' etc.
