I'm not sure python-mode.el actually provides variable syntax highlighting. I don't have it turned on and I don't see in the code where that's supported, but I could have missed something (it's Friday after all :). I see this in python.el: ;; Top-level assignments are worth highlighting. (,(rx line-start (group (1+ (or word ?_))) (0+ space) "=") (1 font-lock-variable-name-face)) Maybe some elisp hacker would like to add support for this into python-mode.el? -Barry
