Highlight group font setting has no effect #406

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Set a highlight group font in settings file. e.g.: hi comment font=Menlo:h13

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
In the above case, the comments still show up in the default font I've set 
(Monaco).

What version of MacVim and OS X are you using 
Snapshot 64, OS X 10.7.3

Please provide any additional information below.
I found this on a thread from last year 
http://vim.1045645.n5.nabble.com/Changing-font-for-highlighted-groups-td4545479.
html but do not see an issue logged here so I'm logging it. My use case: tryng 
to have comments be italicized in Menlo font while default font is set to 
Monaco since Monaco doesn't have an inbuilt italic version (though some editors 
like jEdit and Textmate synthesize an italic version of Monaco).

I'm aware of the issue but have not had time to anything about this.  It is not 
going to be an easy fix unfortunately.
