Re: [O] Fontify text between quotes?

[Will Pierce]

Ahah! Thanks for the tip!

Added the following to my init:

;; use org-block face in verse/quote blocks

(setq org-fontify-quote-and-verse-blocks t)

;; use org-block for smart-quoted text

(defun my-org-smart-quote-fontify ()

  "Use org-block face for text between smart quotes."

  (font-lock-add-keywords nil

                          '(("“\\(.*?\\)”" . 'org-block))))

(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'my-org-smart-quote-fontify)

;; (remove-hook 'org-mode-hook 'my-org-smart-quote-fontify)

It doesn't work across newlines, but that's alright for now.

Hello,

You can in principle tap directly into font lock-mode.
For instance something like

 (add-hook 'org-mode-hook
           (lambda ()
             (font-lock-add-keywords nil
                                     '(("\\<\\(FIXME\\):" 1 'font-lock-warning-face prepend)
                                       ("\\<\\(and\\|or\\|not\\)\\>" .
                                        'font-lock-keyword-face)))))




would fontify [FIXME:], [and] [or] ,and [not], without the [], in org-mode, See the
doc of font-lock-add-keywords (just stole the code above from it)

I could not achieve what you want though. Don't have enough time and energy
to think about it now, and I'm very bad with regex. :-). But in
principle it should do the job,

Hope this helps,

Jeremie
