I would like to add a text property to buffers that has the following characteristics:
It is a text property, not an overlay, because I want to be able to cut and paste the text and keep the property. It has a user-visible aspect to it; a face would be good, but the face property is "owned" by font-lock; my property should nonetheless be compatible with font-lock. I want my property to have higher precedence than font-lock's face property, i.e., if font-lock turns some word blue, but I turned it red, it should always appear in red. Does anyone have any advice on this topic? I looked at (and do not fully understand) the description of `font-lock-face' from the "Special Properties" node of the elisp manual. It seems like it might be close to what I want, but with the precedence turned around. I could be quite worng about that. _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
