Sorry for my lack of clarity, the boxquote is my doing... what I'm
attempting to ask about is how that author colors the background green
for the portion I have boxquoted above.
That is: In post Message-ID: <87h9v8bqxh.fsf@web.de> (on gmane.emacs.help),
Michael Heerdegen has somehow caused the bit below to appears with
medium green background.
(defun my-find-file-around-ad (origfun &rest args)
(interactive
(find-file-read-args "Open file: "
(confirm-nonexistent-file-or-buffer)))
(apply origfun args))
(advice-add 'find-file :around #'my-find-file-around-ad)
I'd like to know how that is done.
boxquote.el does not appear to offer anything related to color. At
least the word `color' or `background' do not appear in it.
