[AUCTeX-devel] Fwd: Bug in font-latex.el

[Robert Goldman]

I submitted this bug to Aquamacs, because I encountered it there.  David
Reitter, the Aquamacs maintainer said I should pass it on to you.

I'm not sure that just dropping the BUF argument is enough, because I'm
not sure if START and END are buffer positions are markers.
JIT-LOCK-FORCE-REDISPLAY may need the latter.

best,
R

font-latex.el has font-latex-jit-lock-force-redisplay whose docstring says:

"Compatibility for Emacsen not offering `jit-lock-force-redisplay'."

The first sexpression is as follows:

(defun font-latex-jit-lock-force-redisplay (buf start end)
  "Compatibility for Emacsen not offering `jit-lock-force-redisplay'."
  (if (fboundp 'jit-lock-force-redisplay)
      (jit-lock-force-redisplay buf start end)

but when I look at the source for jit-lock-force-redisplay (in
jit-lock.el.gz), I see that it takes only two arguments (start and end),
not BUF.  Interestingly, its docstring mentions a BUF argument, which
suggests it was recently updated without the docstring getting updated.

I think we need simply drop that BUF argument.  jit-lock-force-redisplay
extracts the right buffer from the start and end markers.
