The Automatic Overlays package allows you to define overlays that are created (and updated and destroyed) automatically when text in a buffer matches a regular expression.
Various classes of automatic overlay are provided, to make it easy to define matches for different text regions: words, lines, regions enclosed by start and end tags, or regions enclosed by delimiters. You can also define your own custom classes.

This should make hooking into the same mechanism easier when writing new overlay classes (see auto-overlay-line.el for an example). * Significant bug fixes.
