30.9.2 LaTeX Editing Commands
LaTeX mode, and its variant, SliTeX mode, provide a few extra features not applicable to plain TeX.
- C-c C-o
Insert ‘\begin’ and ‘\end’ for LaTeX block and position point on a line between them (
tex-latex-block
).- C-c C-e
Close the innermost LaTeX block not yet closed (
tex-close-latex-block
).
In LaTeX input, ‘\begin’ and ‘\end’ commands are used to
group blocks of text. To insert a ‘\begin’ and a matching
‘\end’ (on a new line following the ‘\begin’), use C-c
C-o (tex-latex-block
). A blank line is inserted between the
two, and point is left there. You can use completion when you enter the
block type; to specify additional block type names beyond the standard
list, set the variable latex-block-names
. For example, here's
how to add ‘theorem’, ‘corollary’, and ‘proof’:
(setq latex-block-names '("theorem" "corollary" "proof")) |
In LaTeX input, ‘\begin’ and ‘\end’ commands must
balance. You can use C-c C-e (tex-close-latex-block
) to
insert automatically a matching ‘\end’ to match the last unmatched
‘\begin’. It indents the ‘\end’ to match the corresponding
‘\begin’. It inserts a newline after ‘\end’ if point is at
the beginning of a line.
