Message-ID: <92068899.3376981453673697293.JavaMail.httpd@webmail-19.iol.local> (raw)
Ok, so if I want to use this character '•' (a bullet mark) to trigger math
expression, what should I write in my .emacs file regarding the `cdlatex-math-
symbol-prefix' variable? (Please help me out, I know nothing about how to write
elisp).
Since you mention this might be a bug with CDLaTeX, I'd like to add that
pressing TAB after '-' (dash) in an itemize environment doesn't put '\item'. I
believe it's an empty command.
