BUG: org-block face not working

BUG: org-block face not working

[Michal Koval]

Hello,

recently I switched from maint to master (release_8.3beta-1091-g96c533)
and noticed that org-block face defined in my theme does not work anymore.

What could be of some help is that when I type <s TAB, I see a code block
#+BEGIN_SRC

#+END_SRC

with the correct background face in the block specified in my theme.
But, when I type in a language (typing one non-blank character after
BEGIN_SRC is enough), the face inside the block changes to the Emacs
default one.
e.g.
#+BEGIN_SRC python

#+END_SRC

I got the same behavior with emacs -q.

Regards,

Michal

I don't think src blocks ever got `org-block' face. There used to be
a `org-block-background' face for an overlay, however, but it was
removed in commit f8b42e8ebeeecdef59a8a7cbc4324264a5162197.

I see `(defface org-block' in org-faces.el and I see it used it in org.el
`org-fontify-meta-lines-and-blocks-1' where the bug probably is.

`org-block' face is used for verbatim blocks (e.g, example block) and
src blocks without a language specified. If language is specified,
fontification mechanism is done with `org-src-font-lock-fontify-block',
which doesn't use `org-block' face.

It was already the case in maint.

I have just tried the latest maint version and it works as I described
in my first mail. The background specified in `org-block' is applied to
the language named begin_src blocks, too. The language specific
fontification of the foreground faces is applied as well. I really like
the feature.

In the master branch it works only for unnamed begin_src blocks (and
quote, verbatim, and example).

I like the behavior of the maint better, but in case that `org-block'
was really meant to apply only to unnamed src blocks + quote, verbatim
and example, please change the documentation string of the `org-block'
from "Face text in #+begin ... #+end blocks." to something more
descriptive.

Is it possible to change the background of the src blocks in a different
way?

Thank you,
best regards,

Michal
