[AUCTeX-devel] Insert two dollars when typing one

[Mosè Giordano]

Hi all,

I'd like to be able to insert two dollar signs and put the point
between them when I type `$' outside math mode.  It seems I'm not the
only having this wish, see for example

Many people use code that don't know anything about TeX syntax and
usually don't check if point is inside or outside math mode.  I'm
sending a patch to do this in AUCTeX, of course I'm not changing the
default behaviour of `TeX-insert-dollar'.  If `blink-matching-paren'
is non-nil, the opening dollar blinks for a second, like when closing
`$...$' or `$$...$$'.

        * tex.el (TeX-math-close-single-dollar): New variable.
        (TeX-insert-dollar): Use it.


Bye,
