Hi all,
I wasn't able to google a clear examples of how to do this. For
example, I'd like to highlight all text between double-quotes.

Typically it looks something like this:
(font-lock-add-keywords org-mode
(list (list (concat "\\(\"[^\"]+\"\\)")
1 highlight-face t)))
Where `highlight-face' is the face you'd like to use. The regexp doesn't
handle cases where \" legitimately occurs in a string, either. The part
between the \\(\\) is what gets colorized.

Sorry, that should be 'org-mode, to name the symbol, not attempt to use its
value.

Thanks for the hint, I tried this, but all my beautiful salad bowl
colours went away.
(font-lock-add-keywords 'org-mode '(("\"\\(\\(?:.\\|\n\\)*?[^\\]\\)\""
0 font-lock-string-face)))
Notice that I made a bad attempt to handle escaped quotation mark in
the string. Does anyone know a better solution to handle escaped
characters in font-lock?

Hi, I want to add custom keywords to be highlighted. I used
(font-lock-add-keywords nil '(("books" . org-level-4)) t)
but nothing happens after I restart orgmode or call 'font-lock-update'.

The following works for me, in an org mode buffer:
,----
| (font-lock-add-keywords nil '(("books" . 'org-level-4)) t)
`----
(I added a quote before the face name).
No need to call font-lock-update or restart: any new or modified text
gets the new fontification.

Thanks, it works with the quote.
