Sorry to spam here a little, but I was looking into how we should integrate something like cl-font-lock (https://github.com/cl-font-lock/cl-font-lock) into Emacs and then I started to wonder... Who uses `lisp-mode`? IIUC neither SLY nor SLIME actually use `lisp-mode` itself, they use some other major mode with its fontification function, right? So do they already highlight built-in functions, types, and variables in a special way (presumably by querying the underlying Lisp process)? Do they actually use a proper child-mode of `lisp-mode`? Do they (re)use the font-lock keywords of `lisp-mode` at all, or do they use something completely independent? Stefan
