TeX is written by a mathematician, and has always contained good support for formatting mathematical text. AUCTeX supports this tradition, by offering a special minor mode for entering text with many mathematical symbols. You can enter this mode by typing C-c ~.
LaTeX-math-abbrev-prefix
to allow easy typing of
mathematical symbols. ` will read a character from the keyboard,
and insert the symbol as specified in LaTeX-math-list
. If given a
prefix argument, the symbol will be surrounded by dollar signs.
You can use another prefix key (instead of `) by setting the
variable LaTeX-math-abbrev-prefix
.
To enable LaTeX-math-mode by default, add the following in your `.emacs' file:
(add-hook 'LaTeX-mode-hook 'LaTeX-math-mode) |
LaTeX-math-mode
commands;
This value defaults to `.
The variable LaTeX-math-list
holds the actual mapping.
LaTeX-math-mode
.
The car of each element is the key and the cdr is the macro name.
AUCTeX's reference card `tex-ref.tex' includes a list of all math mode commands.
