Thank you very much for your replies.

Here is the use case:

|-----------+--------|
| something | :next: |
|-----------+--------|

I would like :next: to show up using an arbitrary face.


As suggested by Ihor, I tried:

(font-lock-add-keywords 'org-mode
  '(("\\W\\(:next:\\)\\W" 1 font-lock-warning-face prepend)))

in my init.el

It does not work either.


@Christian yes, it's the same syntax as tags, I would like to extend it 
eventually.


Thanks,
PHF
