I suppose we could write something like


When hi-lock is started and if the mode is not excluded or patterns
rejected, the beginning of the buffer is searched for lines of the
form:
  Hi-lock: (FOO BAR)

where FOO and BAR are patterns.


but I don't know what `hi-lock-mode' patterns should look like and how
that mode works.  If anyone does, please apply a patch so we can close
this.
