Hi,
I like the TeX-electric-escape command, and set it in my .emacs as:
(setq TeX-electric-escape t)
In general, when I press "\", it will prompt a command I previously
used/typed as a default option. If I press "Enter", the previously used
command will be inserted directly. This is great. If I press the "\" just
before a space, then it will prompt " " instead of the previously used
command. I like this characteristics too.
Can we extend this characteristic to other LaTeX "special" characters: "$,
%, _, }, &, #, {"? Sometime, we simply copy a piece of text from other
non-LaTeX sources, these special characters will cause compilation errors.
A quick method to fix the problem is to insert a "\" before each of them.
We may also just forget to type the "\" before them until the compilation
errors show.
My suggestion is: if the mouse cursor is just put before one of the special
characters (same as before a space), instead of prompting for the previously
used command, AUCTeX just prompts for an "empty" command. So if we press
"Enter" directly, a "\" will be inserted before these special characters
instead of the previously used command. (This issue bothers me many times.)
Thanks.
