Hi Arash,

"brazilian.el" and "portuguese.el" add symbols for four convenience
macros which are defined by `babel' in `portuges.ldf', namely `\ord',
`\orda', `\ro' and `\ra'. While I had correctly reported they do not
receive arguments, I started playing with them now (the style files
made
me remember they exist), and they do however gobble the following
space.
Hence they should be inserted with trailing empty braces, or `nil'
argument in `TeX-add-symbols'.
This is not the general approach in AUCTeX. If you want to have
braces
after (certain) macros, please use the variables `TeX-insert-braces'
or
`TeX-insert-braces-alist':
Sorry to pester you again with this. I'm probably missing something,
but I can't seem to find a way to make this work as expected based on
`TeX-insert-braces-alist'.
As far as I understood, this variable only takes `t' or `nil' for any
given macro, the later does not add the braces, and the former adds them
and places point between the braces. I don't see a way to emulate the
effect `nil' has in `TeX-add-symbols' which is to add the braces and
leave point after the closing brace. Is this indeed the case, or am I
really missing something?
Best regards,
Gustavo.
