Hi! I've been trying to use the combination of AucTeX and mmm-mode to edit literate programming files, and I have a question/request. When trying to use the mmm-mode to edit a pamphlet file with AucTeX, the syntax highlighting gets messed up by $ included in the source code. There are a couple obvious things to do - the "right" one I suppose being to teach Auctex to fontify only parts of the buffer that are in tex mode, and the quick one to have it treat anything between <<something>>= and @ (or other delimiters at user option) as verbatim. I took a quick poke at AucTeX but I don't see an obvious way to make it do this - the list of verbatim environments doesn't seem to have provisions for beginning and end markers that are different, and although I'm not sure it looks like the \verb macro code doesn't do multiple lines. The best case, which would allow syntax highlighting to survive in the code chunks without being clobbered by tex-mode, is to only fontify the tex parts of the file. I rather doubt AucTeX checks on a line by line or char by char basis if Emacs is still in tex mode, since that's normally a whole buffer affair - is there some way this can be done?
Thanks for your time and an excellent Emacs mode! Cheers, CY __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
