My new compile v0.19
http://dapfy.bei.t-online.de/compile.el
now has a working minor-mode variant. That font-lock-add-keywords its own
stuff to the front of whatever was there. It then calls turn-on-font-lock, or
in case that was on, font-lock-fontify-buffer to make sure the new keywords are
taken into accont.
This works nicely:
M-: (progn (outline-mode) (compilation-minor-mode))
You can also manually call compilation-shell-minor-mode in a comint buffer.
The only thing that doesn't work, is activating it in the _same_command_ that
starts a comint, actually comint-mode, not even on the post-command-idle-hook.
This claims font-lock is on, the font-lock-keywords get correctly set, but all
remains unfontified:
M-: (progn (comint-mode) (compilation-minor-mode))
This promising work-around doesn't help either:
M-: (progn (comint-mode) (remove-hook 'change-major-mode-hook
'font-lock-defontify t) (compilation-minor-mode))
I can't see what comint-mode is doing that prevents this from working. How can
I marry comint-mode in one command with a minor mode that needs to turn on
font-lock?
Background:
The new compile uses font-lock as its message parser. And some compilations
(e.g. TeX) may want to talk back, so comint can be useful.
