Re: pretty fonts in sources
John,
Electric Font Lock Mode doesn't work in Release 7 anymore. Seems that
Symbolics hadn't had any time to convert this to Release 7. Or is it,
because it should really be named Electric Style Lock Mode :-)...
To figure out translations from 'old' fonts to 'new' character styles,
see the section on character styles in Vol 2A of the Doc, which should
tell you what you need to know. Esp. the part on 1Character Styles for TV
Fonts.
0As a fix for Electric Fonts you (and maybe others) may want to use the
code I'll append to this message. It will provide you with an Electric
Style Lock Mode, which has some more nice features, just try it...
But be warned: there are some subtle bugs due to character styles in
source code. Those two lines look the same to you
(chaos:connect net:*local-host* "FOO")
(chaos:connect net:*local-host* 2"FOO"0)
but not to the machine, because they are written in different styles
(namely NIL.NIL.NIL vs. FIX.ROMAN.NIL) and those strings "FOO" are
passed *with* style information into the lisp environment - I'd call
this brain-damaged!
So, here's the code, enjoy:
