hi list, i recently switched from using the verbose
#+begin_latex \begin{eqnarray} 8 &=& 7 + 1 \end{eqnarray} #+end_latex to just the "inline version" \begin{eqnarray} 8 &=& 7 + 1 \end{eqnarray} which is: shorter to write thus also clearer to read and as a welcome gadget even exports to html as well. but i see also two drawbacks: 1. syntax highlighting is lost 2. org-edit-special (C-') doesn't switch to auctex anymore[fn:1] it would be fantastic if it was possible for org-edit-special to work on an enclosing \begin -- \end region the same way it did on a latex block, i.e. show a new window with the snippet in latex mode. in there one would have all the pleasures of syntax highlighting and auctex shortcuts and whatelse. is this already possible? thanks, jonas Footnotes: [fn:1] while org-cdlatex-mode is great, i sometimes prefer auctex
