This is normally done with turn-on-font-lock:

(add-hook 'emacs-lisp-mode-hook 'turn-on-font-lock)
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook 'turn-on-auto-fill)
...

| (defun turn-on-font-lock ()
|   "Turn on Font Lock mode conditionally.
| Turn on only if the terminal can display it."
|   (when (and (not font-lock-mode) window-system)
|     (font-lock-mode)))
