Hi Could that package or parts of it also be used in other modes? I have the problem of displaying images in latex buffers (using auctex) The only available tool I know is iimage.el, but this package does not allow to re-seize the displayed image. I asked about it on emacs devel and the answer was: «please send a patch or wait», fail enough I just attach the mail in question below in order to clarify. ,---- | | | | I just learnt about iimage.el, which is now part of GNU emacs core.
