6.3 Outlining the Document

AUCTeX supports the standard outline minor mode using LaTeX/ConTeXt sectioning commands as header lines. See section `Outline Mode' in GNU Emacs Manual.

You can add your own headings by setting the variable TeX-outline-extra.

Variable: TeX-outline-extra
List of extra TeX outline levels.

Each element is a list with two entries. The first entry is the regular expression matching a header, and the second is the level of the header. A `^' is automatically prepended to the regular expressions in the list, so they must match text at the beginning of the line.

See LaTeX-section-list or ConTeXt-INTERFACE-section-list for existing header levels.

The following example add `\item' and `\bibliography' headers, with `\bibliography' at the same outline level as `\section', and `\item' being below `\subparagraph'.

 
(setq TeX-outline-extra
      '(("[ \t]*\\\\\\(bib\\)?item\\b" 7)
	("\\\\bibliography\\b" 2)))

You may want to check out the unbundled `out-xtra' package for even better outline support. It is available from your favorite emacs lisp archive.
