Re: typeface for keyword

[steve-humphreys]

It is a very useful utility.  It was "font-lock-keyword-face".
Am trying to define a face that I can change, so that the
face is updated at multiple locations, by simply changing the
font lock face.  But this makes emacs complain.

(defface tface
  '(:inherit font-lock-keyword-face)
  "Colour typeface to use.")
