I think with font-lock-add-keywords it should work. I have put another
overlay on the tags, so that they are seen inside a box, separated by
":".
(defun overlay-dired-filetags (&optional lim)
(when
(re-search-forward "\\(_ftag_\\)\\(.+\\)" lim t)
(let
((ov (make-overlay (match-beginning 1) (match-end 1)))
(tag (propertize " ⚜ " 'face 'bold))
(ov-2 (make-overlay (match-beginning 2) (match-end 2)))
(tags (propertize (replace-regexp-in-string
"_"
":"
(match-string 2))
'font-lock-face
'(:foreground "red" :box t))))
(overlay-put ov 'overlay-tag t)
(overlay-put ov 'display tag)
(overlay-put ov-2 'overlay-tag-2 t)
(overlay-put ov-2 'display tags))))
(font-lock-add-keywords
'dired-mode
'((overlay-dired-filetags (0 'font-lock-keyword-face t)))
t)
