I don't know what is "htmlize-region-for-past(e?)".  Care to give us
some context?

I have never used it, but it is used by org-mode when it exports code
fragment in an org-mode file to html. That will show the syntax
coloring (make by font-lock) in the exported html code.

Unfortunately it is a little bit of work to implement this in
htmlfontify if I remember correctly (I am addinng Vivek to the
recievers of this message). Htmlfontify always puts the css code in
the header, i.e. it produces a full html file.

How on earth do you expect anyone to figure out what you meant from
your initial report? "org-html uses htmlize; now that there is an
htmlfontify package in Emacs, it would be good to use that instead."

Once again: please take more time when composing your bug reports.
It wastes everbody's time having to play 20 questions.

Sorry if it seemed to confusing. If you knew what
htmlize-region-for-paste does then it probably would be easy to
understand.

Anyway I hope this is something Vivek can figure out how to fix.

The above feature request for `org-html-htmlize-region-for-paste' has
been sitting in the Emacs bug tracker for 10 years.  It seems like no
one on our side has taken an interest in it.

I am now closing this bug in our tracker with a copy to the Org-mode
mailing list, in the hope that someone there will be able to determine
what, if anything, should be done about this.

I hope this doesn't waste any time for the Org-mode maintainers or
anyone else; please feel free to just ignore this email if it is not of
interest.

Thanks.
