@jan: The test that hi-lock uses internally is actually
(and font-lock-mode (font-lock-specified-p major-mode))
so you need an implemented font-locking in your buffer. I guess this is
intentional and has its reasons. But yes, it is surprising.
@Eli: the docstring of `hi-lock-mode' just says:
"In buffers where Font Lock mode is enabled, patterns are
highlighted using font lock."
That's wrong, I think the docstring should be adapted. _Or_
hi-lock-mode could query the user whether he still wants to enable
hi-locking using font-lock, with the risk of messing up other
highlighting that doesn't come from font-lock.
Michael.
