Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Osku Salerma (osku_salerma) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Use defface, not make-face, for creating font lock faces Initial Comment: The normal way of customizing font lock faces does not work with python-mode since it does not use the defface function. The attached patch against python-mode 4.7 fixes this, and one can now use customize-faces to customize python-mode's faces. This is tested on emacs 21.4; I have no idea if xemacs support this or not. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Osku Salerma (osku_salerma) Date: 2006-04-10 18:28 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1474072 The documentation for defface in emacs 21.4 is basically identical to the one you posted. It it not a recent addition; according to http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/emacs/lisp/custom.el?rev=1.1&root=emacs&view=markup it has been in existence at least since April 1997, the date that the file custom.el was created. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Skip Montanaro (montanaro) Date: 2006-04-09 19:07 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=44345 XEmacs has defface. Can you compare this documentation with what's in GNU Emacs? I don't have a recent GNU Emacs handy. /usr/bin/emacs on my Mac says it's version 21.2.1. Apropos in that environment does not turn up a defface macro. Is it a recent addition? `defface' (buffer: *Hyper Apropos*, mode: Hyper-Apropos) Compiled Lisp macro, (loaded from "/Users/skip/src/xemacs-21.5/lisp/custom.elc"): arguments: (face spec doc &rest args) Declare FACE as a customizable face that defaults to SPEC. FACE does not need to be quoted. Third argument DOC is the face documentation. If FACE has been set with `custom-set-face', set the face attributes as specified by that function, otherwise set the face attributes according to SPEC. The remaining arguments should have the form [KEYWORD VALUE]... The following KEYWORDs are defined: :group VALUE should be a customization group. Add FACE to that group. SPEC should be an alist of the form ((DISPLAY ATTS)...). ATTS is a list of face attributes and their values. The possible attributes are defined in the variable `custom-face-attributes'. The ATTS of the first entry in SPEC where the DISPLAY matches the frame should take effect in that frame. DISPLAY can either be the symbol t, which will match all frames, or an alist of the form ((REQ ITEM...)...) For the DISPLAY to match a FRAME, the REQ property of the frame must match one of the ITEM. The following REQ are defined: `type' (the value of `window-system') Should be one of `x', `mswindows', or `tty'. `class' (the frame's color support) Should be one of `color', `grayscale', or `mono'. `background' (what color is used for the background text) Should be one of `light' or `dark'. Read the section about customization in the Emacs Lisp manual for more information. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=581351&aid=1466941&group_id=86916 _______________________________________________ Python-mode mailing list Python-mode@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-mode
