[PATCH 1/1] org-src.el: Add option to delay fontification of source bloc

Subject: [PATCH 1/1] org-src.el: Add option to delay fontification of source blocks
Date: Thu, 25 Mar 2021 19:25:02 +0100

From: Leo Okawa Ericson <git@relevant-information.com>

* lisp/org-src.el (org-src-font-lock-fontify-block): Add option to delay
fontification of source blocks.  If
`org-src-font-lock-fontify-idle-delay' is non-nil fontification of
code blocks is delayed until the user has become
idle.

Fontification of source blocks can be very slow. This will add an option
for users to delay the fontification until they have become idle so that
the typing delay is kept low. The trade-off is that there will be no
syntax highlighting when the user is typing.
