Re: Separating colour and positioning functioning

[Christopher Dimech]

I am working on crucible-supinf-enable, which currently does both
font-lock-add-keywords and font-lock-unfontify-region-function

And would like the functionality to enable or disable only supinf
rather than disabling tex-keywords-cruc.

tex-keywords-cruc turns tex keywords to a red colour.

I want to have two functions, one to enable supinf, another to disable it.
