I'm working on making a custom emacs major-mode, but I'm completely unfamiliar with lisp - so I'm struggling. I'm trying to add a font lock such that a line of repeating ' =
' or ' -
' is highlighted, along with the line above it (so that I can use these as headings), ie
This is a Colored Heading
=========================
this is a differently-colored sub-heading
-----------------------------------------
I've tried to set this up with:
(font-lock-add-keywords nil '(("\\(.*\n=\{3,\}\\)"
1 font-lock-warning-face prepend)))
but it isn't working. I thought this meant:
' .*
' any characters
' \\n
' followed by a newline
' =\\{3,\\}
' followed by 3 or more '=' characters
Where am I going wrong?
"\\{"
and "\\}"
are treated as an escape sequence, which they're not. You need to use "\\\\{"
and "\\\\}"
instead:
(font-lock-add-keywords nil '(("\\(.*\n=\\{3,\\}\\)"
1 font-lock-warning-face prepend)))
